Youth has gone

I heard you say

It doesn't matter

Anyway

Don't hide the photos

Or turn off the lights

I'm quite sure we've both seen

Funnier sights



Chorus:

Youth

Sleep in a deep deep deep

Beauty is skin deep



Youth has gone

Though we're still young

It's hard I know to believe

That I was somebody's son

The memories

Of what you once were

The memories of what

We both were



Chorus



Youth has gone

Though don't think

I don't cry

We let ourselves slip

And now

I ask myself why

I'm on my own

And don't think I really mind

When after all

The years have been fairly kind



Youth

Sleep in a deep deep deep

Beauty is skin deep

Sleep in a deep deep deep

Beauty is skin deep



Youth...Youth...Sleep!
