Tipping the bottle 'cause she's been in trouble
And no there's no easy way out
Wasted her tears and the best of her years
'Cause she couldn't give all of herself
And she don't want children
She grew up missing home
God only knows that she's always been fighting
For something to call her own
How does it feel?
How does it feel to be young?
Reckless and real
Weightlessly under the gun
To be over the moon
And carelessly under the sun
Rented a place in the heart of L.A.
Far from who she used to be
She meets a boy from the south of Detroit
Who reminds her how it feels to dream
So they get married
But God knows she's still alone
Carries her baby
And raises him on her own
How does it feel?
How does it feel to be young?
Reckless and real
Weightlessly under the gun
To be over the moon
And carelessly under the sun
How does it feel?
How does it feel to be young?
Reckless and real
Weightlessly under the gun
To be over the moon
And carelessly under the sun
To be over the moon
And carelessly under the sun
