Ella Langley Young Love (Strong Love)

AlphabetLyrics.com

She was sittin' cross-legged on the hood of a ford
Filin' down her nails with an emery board
Talkin' to her friends about people they knew
And all of the things that young girls do
When she said, 'you see that guy in the baseball cap?
I'd like to spend some time with a boy like that'
Betty said, 'I've seen him at the hardware store
Think his name is billy, but I'm not sure'
And as they talked a little while, he passed by
She smiled at him, he just said, 'hi'
He was thinkin' to himself as he walked away
'Man, I'd like to find a girl like her someday'.

Young love
Strong love
True love
It's a new love
They're gonna make it through the hard times
And walk those lines
Yeah, these ties will bind
Young love.

She just couldn't stop herself from thinkin' 'bout him
At a store downtown, she saw him again
She had both hands full, he held open the door
He said, 'my name is billy, I've seen you before
Can I help you with these? can I give you a ride?
Can I take you out on a saturday night?'
She didn't have to say what she was feelin' inside
He could see the answer shinin' in her eyes.

Young love
Strong love
True love
It's a new love
They're gonna make it through the hard times
And walk those lines
Yeah, these ties will bind
Young love.

Well, from that day on, you couldn't keep 'em apart
They were side by side, heart to heart
And mama cried as billy slipped the ring on her hand
When the baby was born, she was cryin' again
Well, he worked real hard and put some money down
On a little old house at the edge of town
That night as he held her, he just couldn't believe
God had made a girl that he'd never ever leave.

Young love
Strong love
True love
It's a new love
They're gonna make it through the hard times
And walk those lines
Yeah, these ties will bind
Young love.

She was sittin' cross-legged on the hood of a ford
Filin' down her nails with an emery board.
