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 daddy s 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

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 you never will

And the goodbye makes the journey harder still

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
