Oh, very young, what will you
Leave us this time
You're only dancing on this earth
For a short while
And though your dreams may toss
And turn you now
They will vanish away like your
Dad's best jeans denim blue
Fading up to the sky
And though you want him to last
Forever you know he never will
You know he never will
And the patches make
The goodbye harder still
Bridge:
Oh, very young, what will you
Leave us this time
There'll never be a better
chance to change your mind
And if you want this world
To see a better day
Will you carry the words
Of love with you
Will you ride the great white
Bird into heaven
And though you want to last
Forever you know you never will
You know he never will
And the goodbye
Makes the journey harder still
Bridge:
Will you carry
The word of love with you
Will you ride
Bridge:
Oh, very young, what will you
Leave us this time
You're only dancing on this earth
For a short while
Oh, very young
what will you leave us this time
