  • Be still young heart
    Never will you fall apart
    Be still young heart
    Never will you fall apart
    Be wise my dear, you must, learn to just be still
    Until you really really know
    Show me you're right, shine your light
    I wonder when will I know

    To hell if I don't pray
    Like a mannequin in the window I don't say
    A, word, I like to sit back, observe
    My heart says do not disturb, and yours
    Is like a doorknob, everybody get a turn (yeah)
    Now that's a turnoff, girl, I'm not concerned
    More like the early bird tryin' to get the worm worm
    But not on those terms, you got on my nerves
    Say I don't deserve you, you're gonna learn
    Treat it like a perm, leave it be or let it burn (burn)
    Eat 'em like an urr-ange, orange
    So when they on the verge of leavin' it don't get borin'
    Foreign trips are taken
    Just to see your smiley faces, time's a-wastin'
    And I don't like to waste no time
    You can be down or, yeah

    Be still young heart
    Never will you fall apart
    Be still young heart
    Never will you fall apart
    Be wise my dear, you must, learn to just be still
    Until you really really know
    Show me you're right, shine your light
    I wonder when will I know

    I love bein' in love (bein' in love)
    Then you let me down, turned my heart around
    Givin' up on love, makes my ocean drown
    You lived in my heart
    Secret melodies haunt me at night
    Maybe lies and lullabies
    This is my last farewell
    You let me down

    Be still young heart
    Never will you fall apart
    Be still young heart
    Never will you fall apart
    Be wise my dear, you must, learn to just be still
    Until you really really know
    Show me you're right, shine your light
    I wonder when will I know'

    Yeah
    From behind the Cadillac do'
    Grip this wood, slide around real slow
    Just thinkin', mind blown
    As I glare through the smoke tinted windows
    And be still

    Be still young heart
    Never will you fall apart
    Be still young heart
    Never will you fall apart
    Be wise my dear, you must, learn to just be still
    Until you really really know
    Show me you're right, shine your light
    I wonder when will I know Writer/s: Antwan Patton, Janelle Robinson, Jeron Ward, Nathaniel Irvin, Ricky Walker Jr., William White
