Oh very young
What will you leave us this time?
You're only dancin' 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, fadin' 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
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 better days
Will you carry the words
Of love with you
Till 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
Will you carry the
Word of love with you?
Will you ride?
Will you ride?
Will you ride?
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
You're only dancin' on this earth
For a short while
Oh very young
What will leave us this time?
