Edge of Forever

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
When you were young Did you ever love somebody Like I love, I love you now 'Cause now that you're older I see you don't mind Letting go of my hand in a crowd You don't want to hold tight. And when we kiss goodnight There's a million hearts Beating in my room I wish they would go away. Ah say it again There's a million hearts That break too soon Everytime you go away. When you were young Did you ever fall down, Graze your knee And want to run to someone 'Cause now that you're older I've been falling down, I want to run to someone But there's nobody around. I can hear the sound There's a million hearths Beating in my room I wish they would go away, Ah say it again There's a million hearts That break too soon Every time you go away. Every time you go away Think about the things I say Think about it twice as long Tell me what's going wrong.
