Advice for the Young at Heart by Tears for Fears Lyrics

[Hook]
Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work?

[Verse 1]
Too many people living in a secret world
While they play mothers and fathers
We play little boys and girls
When we gonna make it work?
I could be happy, I could be quite naive
It's only me and my shadows
Happy in our make believe
Soon...

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And with the hounds at bay
I'll call your bluff
Hey, 'cause it would be okay
To walk on tiptoes everyday
[Chorus]
And when I think of you and all the love that's due
I'll make a promise, I'll make a stand
'Cause to these big brown eyes, this comes as no surprise
We've got the whole wide world in our hands

[Hook]
Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work?

[Verse 2]
Love is promise, love is a souvenir
Once given
Never forgotten, never let it disappear
This could be our last chance
When we gonna make it work?
Working hour is over

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And how it makes me weep
Cause someone sent my soul to sleep

[Chorus]
And when I think of you and all the love that's due
I'll make a promise, I'll make a stand
Cause to these big brown eyes, this comes as no surprise
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
[Interlude]

[Bridge]
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
We've got the whole wide world in our hands

[Hook]
Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work?

[Hook]
Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work?

[Outro]
Working hour is over
We can do anything that we want
Anything that we feel like doing
"Advice..."
