The Way Young Lovers Do (live From The Bataclan)

(van morrison)

Originally contained in van morrison's astral weeks



We...

We strolled through fields all wet with rain

And back along the lane again

There in the sunshine

In the sweet summertime

Oh the way that young lovers do



I kissed you on the lips once more

We said goodbye at your front door

There in the nighttime

Love, that's the right time

Oh to feel the way that young lovers do



Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the

Way that we wanted to be

Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that i was for you

And that you were for me

And then we long to dance the night away

And turned to each other saying 'i love you, baby i love you'

Oh the way that young lovers do



Oh the way...

Oh the way that young lovers do

The way young lovers do

The way young lovers do

The way young lovers do

The way young lovers do

The way young lovers...



Now won't you love me the way young lovers do

Oh won't you love me the way that young lovers do

Oh the way...



Won't you love me the way that young lovers do

It's so close

I can't feel you

Take your time on my body

Aren't you weird of going crazy

Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy...



And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the way

That we wanted to be

And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that i was for you

And that you were for me

Oh, baby, babe

Then we long to dance the night away

And turned to each other saying 'i love you, baby, i love you'

Oh, yes...



[the following are two verses of ivo by the cocteau twins]

Peep hole, peach blow, pandora, pompadour

Pale leaf, pink sweet, persephone



I held her with her looking down

And i kissed her, with the snow falling down

There in the street light

Oh, it was a sweet night

And the way that young lovers do

Oh, the way that young lovers do

Oh the way that young... oh

Oh the ways you do, yes it's you... yes



[the following are some verses of that's all i ask by nina simone]

Oh, don't try to blow out the sun from me, baby

Oh, and i'm hopin' for what i know can't be

All that i ask is for your kiss each day

And i'll give you love that will never go away

I'll give you love that will never go away



Oh the way that young lovers do
