Is this what they call young love? Lyrics

My very first girlfriend, she was meant to make Sarah jealous

But she never knew it, and Sarah saw straight through it

Still we carried forward, kept it up for four whole months

I thought it could be real, but she said we were through

As it turns out, she loved someone else too

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call?

When I started college, I began to date a high schooler

We worked at the tavern and pretended we had passion to burn

We tried to write love songs, and we snuck around our parents' houses

Got caught and were scolded, acted like we weren't old yet

And later, I'd rewrite those songs so I didn't have to give her credit

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call?

Does the word "young" refer to the people or to the love?

Because if it's the love, then anyone can have the kind that's young

Love's easy to lose if it's easy to find

But the day-in-day-out, the hustle and grind

Is what makes the young love turn to fine wine

And we'll be old enough to drink it in time

'Cause I don't want to grow old and still have a young love

But you cannot be young and have an old love

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call young love?

Is this what they call?
