scattered in flowers the footlights fade
should i refrain and act my age?
futures and folly, they fill each page
the color of change
the voice of a boy and a girl on a stage
the words are arranged
like birds in a cage
oh, my love
i compare to a cloudless rain
burn away on a ride and both remain
if i could give you one sure clue
give up your pride and your handstands, too
you're such a close and a timeless child
so don't try to hide, don't break your stride
oh, my love
i compare to a cloudless rain
burn away on a ride and both remain
so don't try to hide, don't break your stride
should i refrain and act my age?
futures and folly, they fill each page
the color of change
the voice of a boy and a girl on a stage
the words are arranged
like birds in a cage
oh, my love
i compare to a cloudless rain
burn away on a ride and both remain
if i could give you one sure clue
give up your pride and your handstands, too
you're such a close and a timeless child
so don't try to hide, don't break your stride
oh, my love
i compare to a cloudless rain
burn away on a ride and both remain
so don't try to hide, don't break your stride
