I wanna hold you but you're out of reach 
Somewhere searching for your inner peace 
Im just looking for a little squeeze 
Face to face and cheek to cheek 
Its in your blood but not in mine 
What's in your blood is in my mind 
Somethings broken in the way we smile 
It is within us all the time 
Youre well aquainted with the So- o- o-Ho 
And all the Ello and Ow are u? 
And we both have to get it on before the summers gone 
We gotta hurry in our worry to get done today 
Cause one of us is gonna die young 
Lets put our money where our mouth is and get out today 
Cause one of us is gonna die young 
Ooh, Ooh, One of us is gonna die young 
Ooh, Ooh, One of us is gonna die young 
That's right
Aah, aah, aah, aah
And don't you take this the wrong way 
Im not looking for a way to replace what love can give 
Cause you can't do that! 
Im only saying that where I come from 
People find it very fashionable 
To burn like a flame 
Never get tame Grown-up and lame Yeah! Yeah! 
Youre looking beat but you say: no, oh, no, no 
Im all messed up and Im ready to go! 
We aint gonna go it alone no more So lets get on 
With the show 
There's a lot to be said and to be done today 
Cause one of us is gonna die young 
Before they put us in a coffin Ive got things to say 
One of us is gonna die young One of us is gonna die young
Ooh, Ooh, One of us is gonna die young
Ooh, Ooh, One of us is gonna die young
And there's a lot to be said and to be done today 
Cause one of us is gonna die young 
And you're chim-chim-chammy and 
Your're wealthy and you're whammy
'Cus one of us is gonna die young
One of us is gonna die young
One of us is gonna die young
