Forever Young Lyrics

Forever Young
let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
heaven can wait we"re only watching the skies
hoping for the best but expecting the worst
are you going to drop the bomb or not?
let us die young or let us live forever
we don't have the power but we never say never
sitting in the sandpit life is a short trip
the music's for the sad man

can you imagine when this race is won?
turning up our faces into the sun
praising our leaders, getting in tune
the music's played by the mad man
forever young, I want to be forever young
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever?

some are like water, some are like the heat
some are the melody, some are the beat
sooner or later they"ll all be gone
why don"t they stay young?

it's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading voice
youth is like diamonds in the sun
and diamonds are forever
so many adventures couldn't happen today
so many songs we forgot to play
so many dreams are swimming out in the blue
we let them come true

forever young, I want to be forever young
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever?
