Van Morrison - The Way Young Lovers Do (acoustic guitar)

"Unplugged In The Studio", 1968/1971
The Way Young Lovers Do
We strolled through fields, all wet with rain
And back along the lane again
There in the sunshine, in the sweet summertime
The way that young lovers do
I kissed you on the lips once more
And we said goodbye, just adoring the nighttime
Yeah, that's the right time
To feel the way that young lovers do
Then we sat on our own star
And dreamed of the way that we were
And the way that we were meant to be
Then we sat on our own star
And dreamed of the way
That I was for you and you were for me
And then we danced the night away
And turned to each other, sayin'
"I love you, I love you"
The way that young lovers do
Do, do, do
Then we sat on our own star
And dreamed of the way that we were
And the way that we wanted to be
Then we sat on our own star
And dreamed of the way
That I was for you and you were for me
I went on to dance the night away
And turned to each other, sayin'
"I love you, baby, I love you"
The way that young lovers do
Lovers do, lovers do
Do, do, do

This is one the most beautiful thing that I’ve ever heard in my life. Can Morrison is a musical genius

[@NoRosesForMe]

This song has always reminded me of a certain someone. We really did stroll lanes (streets) and kiss at his door and sat and dreamed.........miss him and those days. Maybe I shouldve -later-married that fella. Dunno.......I was 14 then. He was my childhood sweetheart. Sweet thing he was. thank you for sharing this unique version with us. Peace to you dear. Its precious.

Jesus God...this song...this rendition... There are no words. Could anything be more passionate, sensual, or effortlessly erotic? Just. Mm.

[@LordoftheJimmy]

Pretty awesome, but I was really missing the horn section during that second verse and the bridge. Still great to hear the song in it's infant stages.

[@williesayulita]

I like this, the original quite a bit more. This one is like singer/songwriter the other is really jazzy in the way that You Make Me Feel So Free is

[@flashguitar001]

the brass section was actually added by the producer after the recording

[@willemkarelarts1773]

➽ .. ow boy ....

[@mannywilde]

@NoRosesForMe haha, if you've listened to the astral weeks album, you'll hear how van talks about a 14 year old. Coincidence eh?

[@robertpritchard3961]

YOU NEED to read a dictionary and understand the difference between "subjective" & "Objective"
