Was It Youth, Was It Madness, Was It Love

Was it youth that made you kiss me that first time?
Was it madness to believe in that first touch?
You laid down your heart next to mine
Was it youth, was it madness, was it love?

Was it youth that made us set out on our own?
Was it madness to believe we had enough?
When we called that empty one bedroom a home
Was it youth, was it madness, was it love?

When you're young you will dare
To do the unexpected
When you're crazy you'll go dancing in the rain
They will say you don't care
And you're secretly suspected
But love is love is love by any other name

When you're young you will dare
To do the unexpected
When you're crazy you'll go dancing in the rain
They will say you don't care
And you're secretly suspected
But love is love is love by any other name

Was it youth that gave us strength to see it through?
Was it madness not to know when things got rough?
When you held on to me and I to you
Was it youth was it madness, was it love?
Was it youth, was it madness, was it love?
