Young girl so pretty

Young boy not a hair on his face

They're looking out at the big wide world

This was their time this was their place

He says "One day I will make you mine

We'll be together 'til the end of time"

Brighton beach in nineteen fifty-nine

Young woman flowers in her hair

Young man plays a mean guitar

So cosmic but this is the Sixties

Everything is far out way too far

Revolution is in the air

But everyone is "stoned" and they don't care

Cuz it's New York in nineteen sixty-nine

Everybody changes as time goes by

But we can make it if we try

Another city bright lights

A winning streak you're hitting the heights

Another face you want to get to know

Everybody says it's the "way to go"

Maybe you came on just a little too strong

Maybe you played too hard

And it all went wrong

But it was London town in nineteen seventy-nine

Change partners change of scene

Kids get stuck somewhere in-between

No problem we can work it out

But things get broken and people shout

She feels guilty

Thinking she should have stayed

He gets scared 'cause the bills aren't paid

It was somewhere in suburbia in nineteen eighty-nine

Everybody changes as time goes by

But we can make it if we try

Take is easy take it slow

There's not much more you need to know

Looking back on the times you've had

Hang on to the good forget the bad

Take one last look down memory lane

It's good to be starting over again
