You Are Young
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Fearfull child have faith in brighter days
Stay home till this darkness fades away
Lie still beside me
I'll hold you now I'll hold you forever
Winter's hand will freeze your heart again
Doors will close, no time to start again
Nothing is given except the ties that hold us together.
Lay down your load
'cause everyday it's gonna grow
And bask in the sunshine
Try to pay no mind, try to pay no mind at all
To all the things that you don't know
You've got time to realize
You're shielded by the hands of love
'Cause you are young
Fading light may make a fool of me
Courage fails, strengths slip away from me
Lie still beside me
And hold me now and hold me forever
Lay down your load
'Cause everyday it's gonna grow
These days are sacred
Hey now, don't be scared, baby, dont be scared at all
Of all the things that you don't know
You've got time to realize
You're shielded by the hands of love
'Cause you are young
You've got time you gotta try
To bring some good into this world
'Cause you are young, 'cause you are young
Ohh! ohh!
Ohh! ohh!
Ohh! ohh!
'Cause you are young
