When I was young I listened to the radio
Lyrics by: Carole King
(Intro)
When I was young I listened to the radio
When I was young, yes I did
My hair was short and my dreams were high
I looked up at the stars and they never lied
Verse 1
When the beat of my heart matched the rhythm of the song
My head was spinning and my feet were on the ground
Life was beautiful, simple and young
The memories were happy, all golden
Chorus
When I was young I listened to the radio
Played all the songs that I had ever known
My heart could never grow too old
Because they were the music that I grew old with
Verse 2
And as time went by, the songs began to change
And some were sad, some were sweet, some were strange
But I always knew, that they were there for me
And they would never let me feel alone
Chorus x2
Bridge
Now I listen to the radio again
And it brings back memories of my youth again
And I realize, that life is like a song
And you can dance to it, or you can drown in it
Chorus x2
Outro:
When I was young, yes I was,
I listened to the radio.
