[Intro]
I, huh

[Verse 1]
Hey, boy, you're too young for me, but I
Don't care 'cause you're all I see
I like 'em young
I, I like 'em young
Eyes wide, oh, you're so naïve, thinking
No one knows better than me
I like 'em young
I, I like 'em young

[Pre-Chorus]
And people make me wonder
Age is just a number
That they don't think about
That's all I think about

[Chorus]
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
Young like me with a mind so easy
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
Young like me with a mind so easy
I like 'em

[Verse 2]
Hey, girl, why you judgin' me, when your
Your guy's turning 53?
I like 'em young
I, I like 'em young, now
I don't know what really gets you more, is it
That my guy's gonna live out yours?
I like 'em young
I, I like 'em young, hey
They say they don't care, but I

[Pre-Chorus]
I can tell they're lying
'Cause we're all slowly dying
Tryin' to work it out
And all I think about

[Chorus]
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
Young like me with a mind so easy
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
Young like me with a mind so easy
I like 'em

[Bridge]
Life, I live mine
Love, not one kind
All is fair in love and war
My manners out the door
What do I need them for?

[Chorus]
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
Young like me with a mind so easy
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
I like 'em young (Hey)
Young like me with a mind so easy
I like 'em young

Tove Lo

Ebba Tove Elsa Nilsson, professionally known as Tove Lo (pronounced Too-veh-Lu), is a Swedish singer-songwriter born and raised in Djursholm, Sweden.

She first rose to prominence for her single, “Habits (Stay High)“, which became a top ten hit in the U.S. a year after its 2013 release, a dark breakup anthem that generated such Internet buzz that it led to a deal with Universal. “Habits“ and its follow-up, “Out of Mind“, appeared on her debut EP Truth Serum, in 2014.

Later that year, her debut album, Queen of the Clouds, arrived, featuring “Habits“. The album was a Top 10 hit in Sweden and a Top 20 hit in the U.S. and U.K., and the subsequent single “Talking Body“ was a similar success.
