Youth

Youth has gone

I heard you say

It doesn't matter

AnywayDon't hide the photos

Or turn off the lights

I'm quite sure we've both seen

Funnier sightsYouth sleep

In a deep, deep sleep

Beauty is skin deepYouth has gone

Though we're still young

It's hard, I know to believe

That I was somebody's sonThe memories

Of what you once were

The memories of what

We both wereYouth sleep

In a deep, deep sleep

Beauty is skin deepYouth has gone

And don't think I don't cry

We let ourselves slip

And now I ask myself whyI'm on my own

And don't think I really mind

When after all

The years have been fairly kindYouth sleep

In a deep, deep sleep

Beauty is skin deepSleep

In a deep, deep sleep

Beauty is skin deepYouth, youth, youth sleep
