Baby We Were Young

Young love, won't you come and sit real close to me?
For the first time, I've got you by my side
Darling, don't you know that you've got the shaky knees?
Gotta roll the windows down inside your mind
Love was the shape we made
Love was the breath we drew
Youth was in our blood
and baby we were young
Nineteen and twenty-three, with just four years between
We fell in love on a tuesday in july
You're daddy lives so far away, down in memphis, tennessee
One day, you're be my bride
That's right
Love was the name we gave
But love is a shaky thing
You're not the one to blame
Cause baby we were young
