lyrics

Fairy tales can come true it can happen to you
if you're young at heart
for it's hard you will find
to be narrow of mind
if you're young at heart

you can go to extremes with impossible schemes
you can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams
and life gets more exciting with each passing day
and love is either in your heart or on its way

don't you know that it's worth every treasure on earth
to be young at heart
and as rich as you are it's much better by far
to be young at heart

and if you should survive to 105
think of all you've derived out of being alive
then this is the best part
you have a head start
if you are among the very young at heart

don't you know that it's worth every treasure on earth
to be young at heart
or as rich as you are it's much better by far
to be young at heart

and if you should survive to 105
think of all you've derived out of being alive
then this is the best part
you have a head start
if you are among the very young at heart
if you are among the very young at heart

Promises
by Floating Points, Pharoah Sanders & The London Symphony Orchestra

supported by 15 fans who also own “Young At Heart”

Magic in its purest form. I love Floating Points, I love Pharoah Sanders, I love The London Symphony Orchestra. It's a match made in heaven, and the result is absolutely gorgeous. I have loved this record since its release, and realized I don't own it for some reason. So its time to change that. 9.5/10 honestly could become a 10/10 on an indepth vinyl relisten. angrypizza98

In recent history, a music market website said that jazz was on life support. Clearly they weren't paying attention. zzzacck
