Oh Very Young
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
Youre 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 daddys best jeans
Denim blue fading up to the sky
And though you want them to last forever
You know they never will
You know they never will
And the patches make the goodbye harder still
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
Therell 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 you never will
And the goodbye makes the journey harder still
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
Youre only dancing on this earth for a short while
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
YOu know that dearest Cat has now changed his name and is on a terrorist list!
In that case let's post and showcase another of his tunes--
Father and Son
Father: It's not time to make a change, just relax, take it easy,
You're still young that's your fault, there's so much you have to know. Find a girl, settle down, if you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
I was once like you were now, and I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found something going on,
But take your time, think a lot, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.
Son: How can I try to explain, 'cause when I do he turns away.
It's always the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk, I was ordered to listen,
Now there's a way and I know I have to go.
Away, I know, I have to go.
Father: It's not time to make a change, just sit, take it slowly.
You're still young, that's your fault, there's so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down, if you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
Son: All the times that I've cried, keeping all the things I knew inside.
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know, not me.
Now there's a way, and I know that I have to go away,
I know I have to go.
