Should I act or should I take it slow
Which one will be the road that becomes my own
Well, I'm anxious and restless
Well, I'm anxious and restless
I bring it on and drive myself crazy
Will I receive a medal of happiness
Well, she's got nothing to say now that this day has come
Well, I'm speechless and tongue tied
'Cause when the nagging feeling takes hold
I guess that's what it's like to be young
It has arrived, this moment is here for her
Sweet little girl dreamed of the day when
Pick one up, throw it into the sky
I guess that's what it's like to be young
Who looks around and feels overcome
Well, I'm anxious and restless
Living day by day gets harder to face
Well, I'm anxious and restless
When all the questions drive you insane
I guess that's what it's like to be young
I guess that's what it's like to be young
I guess that's what it's like to be young
So much to do, too many choices
I have to leave it alone
Her voice will shine as she takes command
Well, I'm anxious and restless
I have to leave it alone
And if I achieve what I think I wanted
She'd stand up tall and tell the whole world her plan
Well, I'm speechless and tongue tied
I want to feel free and have fun
'Cause when the nagging feeling takes hold
I need to make it by myself
Now she'll be heard and she's got the forum
Will it make my confusion less
But she finds it doesn't matter
I want it all and then I want no one's help
I guess that's what it's like to be young
'Cause that's what it really means to be young
