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
