Restless feet, dig holes into the bed sheets 
Cross my eyes to see the sun on both sides 
And feel it on my skin 
God only knows what 
I think anymore 
I write things down, don't know what for 
Chorus: You still sing the same ol' song you've always sung 
Cruel to be so young 
You still sing it's now or never (now or never) 
Cruel to be so young 
This is never gonna change 
Things are gonna stay this way (x2) 
Another night 
The same ol' city lights 
I'll cross my t's 
So you'll know what i mean (again and again and again) 
Lately I've been livin' in a different day 
Mistakes make for good in such strange ways 
Chorus: You still sing the same ol' song you've always sung 
Cruel to be so young 
You still sing it's now or never (now or never) 
Cruel to be so young 
This is never gonna change 
Things are gonna stay this way (x2) 
It's so cruel to be so young (so young) 
This is never gonna change 
Things are gonna stay this way (x2) 
You still sing the same ol' song you've always sung 
Cruel to be so young 
You still sing it's now or never (now or never) 
Cruel to be so young 
It's cruel, it's cruel to be so young 
So cruel to be young
