  • Fairy tales can come true
    It can happen to you
    If you're young at heart.

    For it's hard you will find
    To be narrow of mind
    If you're young at heart.

    You can go to extremes
    With impossible schemes
    You can laugh when your dreams
    Fall apart at the seams
    And life becomes exciting with each passing day
    And love is either in your heart or on its way.

    Don't you know that it's worth
    Every treasure on earth
    To be young at heart. Writer/s: Carolyn Leigh, Johnny Richards
