Abel Cain - Long As You're Young Lyrics

Thoughts of changes on your mind
But that's not just a waste of time
And as before you wonder why
Day by day just passes by

And all these years they seem the same
But your childhood-shots are all hanging up in frames
They give you sweet narcosis and put your dreams an a rack
To build up a future on your back

The years at school have left a fool
A tortured mind filled with strange rules
Now leave that future for a while gone, gone
Long as you're young there are things to be done

Long as you're young you gotta take all the time you need
To find out where and who and what you want to be
Learn all about the right way to deal with the other one
Hold on but look around to see how far you've come
Long as you're young there are things to be done

Oh, they give you time when yor're sixty-five
I wonder if you'll be alive
And able to do all the things you haven't done
That you planned but did not when you were young

Long as you're young you got to keep circling 'round and 'round
Gain strenght to stand up when you get pushed down to the ground
On the road of loving and living, settling down and moving on
Hold on but look around and see how far you've come

Long as you're young there are things to be done
