Young and Foolish lyrics

Young and foolish,

Why is it wrong to be

Young and foolish

We haven't long to be.

Soon enough the carefree days

The sunlit days go by,

Soon enough the bluebird* has to fly.

We were foolish,

One day we fell in love.

Now we wonder

What we were dreaming of,

Smiling in the sunlight,

Laughing in the rain,

I wish that we were

Young and foolish again!
