Jeff Buckley - The Way Young Lovers Do Lyrics






Oh...

We strolled through fields all wet with rain
And back along the lane again
There in the sunshine
In the sweet summertime
Oh the way that young lovers do

I kissed you on the lips once more
We said goodbye at your front door
There in the nighttime
Love, that's the right time
Oh to feel the way that young lovers do

And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the
way that we wanted to be
And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that I was for you
and that you were for me
And then we long to dance the night away
Turned to each other, saying 'I love you, baby I love you'
Oh the way that young lovers do
Lovers do...
Do, do, do, do...

The way young lovers do
Do, do, do, do...

The way young lovers do...

And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the way
that we wanted to be
And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that I was for you
and you were for me
Oh baby, baby.
And then we long to dance the night away
And turned to each other, saying 'I love you, baby I love you'
Oh the way...

I held her with her looking down
And I kissed her, with the snow falling down
In the street light
It was a sweet light
And the way that young...
Oh, the way that young lovers...
Oh the way that young... that young lovers...
That young lovers do.

(Good night)

  7. S.... W....

    Van Morrison, the original composer and artist of this song must have appreciated Jeff's talent and rendition even it's not in Van's genre. Jeff's version is intensely and passionately haunting.

    We strolled through fields all wet with rain
    And back along the lane again
    There in the sunshine
    In the sweet summertime
    Oh the way that young lovers do

    I kissed you on the lips once more
    We said goodbye at your front door
    There in the night time
    Love, that's the right time
    Oh to feel the way that young lovers do

    And we sat on our own star
    And dreamed of the way that we were
    And the way that we wanted to be
    And we sat on our own star
    And dreamed of the way that I was for you
    And that you were for me
    And then we long to dance the night away
    Turned to each other, saying 'I love you, baby I love you'

    Oh the way that young lovers do
    Lovers do
    Do, do, do, do
    The way young lovers do
    Do, do, do, do


    The way young lovers do

    And we sat on our own star
    And dreamed of the way that we were
    And the way that we wanted to be
    And we sat on our own star
    And dreamed of the way that I was for you
    And you were for me
    Oh baby, baby
    And then we long to dance the night away
    And turned to each other, saying 'I love you, baby I love you'

    Oh the way

    I held her with her looking down
    And I kissed her
    With the snow falling down
    In the street light
    It was a sweet light
    And the way that young
    Oh, the way that young lovers
    Oh the way that young
    That young lovers
    That young lovers

  11. C.... ....

    one man army

  12. K.... L....

    It never dies

  13. L.... Y....

    Amazing

  14. j.... ....

    Almost as good as the ‘live at the bataclan’ version. These vocals though. And superb guitar playing. If your hairs don’t stand on end for the vocals after 7:20, are you even alive?

    j.... ....

    this buries the Bataclan version. THIS has all the tricks, all the vocal techniques, ridiculous scatting and some falsetto that climbs the rafters. every other version is a comparison to THIS ONE.

  15. M.... ....

    This is, hands down, the most impressive live, solo performance of any song ever put to tape. Just incredible.

    M.... ....

    Yes absolutely

    M.... ....

    Completely agree. This leaves me breathless every time I listen to it <3

    M.... ....

    goosebumps every single time

  16. L.... P....

    In state of "Grace". Literally.
    One of the most inspired performance ever at all.
    Just guitar and voice...
    A piece of eternity.
    Mr. Van Morrison can be really proud of this version.

  17. F.... ....

    Never gets old. hands down best live performance ever. I would hand over my testicles to have witnessed this in person.

  18. F.... B....

    I wish I was there so I could cry. That would make me truly happy.

  19. T.... F....

    Incredible

  20. V.... ....

    ✨🎇

  21. M.... ....

    It's like a ten minute orgasm. I would do anything for a visual of this.

  22. C.... C....

    my 1st time hearing ths_why am I even surprised.

  23. B.... L....

    Best performance art piece I've ever had the luxury of experiencing.

    B.... L....

    Brandon Ludwig you were there ! Man how I envy you !

    B.... L....

    that's awesome

    B.... L....

    @Emanuel Hernandez Brandon wasn’t necessarily there (he might have been), but he was probably just commenting on “experiencing” the song the same way most of us do/have, via the album, YouTube, etc.

  24. S.... ....

    Oh my God I would die to see him see him even preform this live

  25. I.... W....

    JUST MEET JEFF A MONTH AGO DECEMBER ON HIS COLD BROKEN HALLELUJAH. ..I SO JUST PICKED UP AN ANGEL 😇

    I.... W....

    Well said.......

  26. t.... ....

    The Celtic Ray.

  27. C.... ....

    love this album. it feels like you're sitting there in the coffee shop. this track is my favorite. it showcases all of buckleys talents and he kills it. rip

  28. A.... 8....

    In my opinion his greatest performance from live @ sin-e album, absolutely incredible the way he builds the song up multiple times... Just a true gem of a song.
    I remember I was in nyc 2010 and I recognised Gary Lucas by himself after a gig in the hotel I was staying at, I didn't go up to him but always wish I would have atleast asked him about Jeff. Truly amazing artist made even more brilliant with his short time on earth

    A.... 8....

    Yea, completely OTT, but absolutely perfect.

  29. J.... ....

    7:06-7:30 is straight music chills.
