( Young love! . . . Young love! . . .

Young love! . . . Young love! . . . )

They say for every boy an' girl,

There's just one love in this whole world,

And I know I found mine,

The heavenly touch of your embrace,

Tells me no one can take your place,

Ever in my heart!

Young love, first love!

Filled with true devotion . . .

Young love, our love!

We share, with deep, emotion . . .

( Emotion! . . . Emotion! )

Oh, just one kiss from your sweet lips

Will tell me that your love is real

And I can feel, that it's true!

We will vow to one another,

There will never be another

Love . . .

For you, or for me!

Young love, first love!

Filled with true devotion . . .

Young love, our love!

We share, with deep, emotion . . . ( Emotion! )

( Young love! . . .

Young love! . . . Young love! . . . )
