A Young Understanding

Hold on tight
 You've got a way to go
 You're terrified by the open road
 In a daze you've lost control
 You find a gang
 And it makes you feel better than the other girls
 And you pray they're just boys and not villians
 One's got religious tattoos, he'll be forgiven
 Let go
 There is nothing more to hide
 Seeing life through closed eyes
 It's just young understanding
 You know, that time is on your side
 Seeing life through closed eyes
 It's just a young understanding
 Cruising round, in a friend's new car
 You've always known that they won't get you far
 Found yourself on a downward slope
 It's ok 'cause it makes you feel better than the other girls
 And you pray they're just boys, they're not villains
 One's got religious tattoos, he'll be forgiven
 Let go
 There is nothing more to hide
 Seeing life through closed eyes
 It's just a young understanding
 You know, that time is on your side
 Seeing life through closed eyes
 It's just a young understanding
 Torn apart, can't you see?
 They left their hearts in the 70's
 Reach for a sign, reach for an understanding
 Reach for a sign, reach for an understanding
 Reach for a sign, reach for an understanding
 Reach for a sign, reach for an understanding
 Let go
 There is nothing more to hide
 Seeing life through closed eyes
 It's just a young understanding
 You know, that time is on your side
 Seeing life through closed eyes
 It's just a young understanding
 Reach for a sign
 It's just a young understanding
 Reach for a sign
 It's just a young understanding
