Mrs Brown You've Got Lovely Daughter / Hold on movie - The World Is for the Young lyrics

rate me

Gloria: Looking in the mirror last night,

My grey hair turned to black.

Looking in the mirror last night

Pleasant memories came back.

Why, I remember back when i was seventeen

And all the things i wanted to do

The world was new.

Tulip: The world is for the young

C'mon, we're on our way.

Its a wonderful place.

What we done and what we're going to do.

Then we'll have changed it's face.

Mr Brown: Searching through some papers last night

A sweet scent filled the air.

It came from the letter i found

And a lock of dark hair.

It belonged to a girl who was in love with me.

And she written that without me, she'd die.

Mrs Brown: I wonder why?

Mrs Brown: Looking through an album last night

I came acrossed a snap.

That showed a handsome youth

With a girl sitting on his lap.

"Valentino?" i thought, with his sleeked black hair,

And Mary Pigford was on his knee.

But it was me!

Mr & Mrs: The world is for the young

But they'll soon find out

When they come to explore,

The strange new lands of expirience.

But we've been there before.

Mr: Trying to recapture the past

Only makes me regret.

The passing of an age and all the people that i've met.

Gloria: A ride on a tram on the upper deck,

With a boy with a Fairbanks moustache.

We were so rash.

All: The world is for the young

It was always so.

Mr, Mrs, Gloria: It's not ours anymore

But, they'll find out when they follow us.

'cause we've been there before.
