Young, Alive and in Love

I thought I would just get that song
Out of the way
I'll be right back

Ladies and gentlemen
The Empire Room of the Waldorf and Astoria
Takes great pleasure in presenting
Mr. Paul Anka

When you're young
Young and alive
When your young and alive
And in love
The world is a yo-yo
You hold on a string
When you're young and alive
And although, it's snowing
It's constantly spring
Honey flows
Out of the hive
People smile when you arrive
When you're young and alive
And in love
In love

I picked up the Empire State the other day
I lifted off its base and walked away
Carousels that have not worked in years
All of a sudden they're swinging into gear

The trap has sprung
I've been stung

It only happens to happen
When you're
Young, young and alive
You are a lion who acts like a dove
Each day turns into a Valentine's Day
When you're young, and alive

You can get those pipettes to pipe without pay
And they won't
Even take five

Aren't you glad, glad, glad
Glad you're alive
When you're young
Young and alive
And in love
