Young Boy Songtext
von Lake Street Dive

I fell in
To love with a young boy
And I fell out
Of love with the man that young boy became
So am I to blame
Or did the boy do the same?

I got in
When the goin′ was easy
And I got out
When the goin' got tough
Well, should I have hung on?
(Should I′ve hung on?)
To a love that went wrong?
(Love that went wrong)
Or had I hung too long?


Childhood darlin'
Don't mean you no harm
′Til you go on and grow up and apart
Sooner or later
You wake up to a stranger
That stole away your darlin′ and your heart

Ah-ha ah-ha ah-ha
Ah-ha ah-ha ah-ha

I fell in
To love with a young boy
And I fell out
Of love with a man
Who later may claim (Later may claim)
That I led him astray (Led him astray)
But truly, one day
I hope he turns out okay
In his own private way

Shouldn't I have hung on?
Should I have hung on?
Should I hung on to you?
Should I hung on?
Oh
Should I have hung on to a fool?
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
