I Know What It Is To Be Young (But You Don't Know What It Is To Be Old)

When we are young age has no meaning

I never gave it a second thought

until one day along came this old man

and this is what he said to me

and this is what he said to me

I know what it is to be young

but you, you don't know what it is to be old

someday, you'll be saying the same thing

time takes away so the story is told

I've asked so many questions

to the wise men i've met

couldn't find all the answers

no one has as yet.

There'll be days to remember

full of laughter and tears

after summer, comes winter and so go the years

So my friend.

lets make music together

I'll play the old while you sing me the new

In time when your young days are over

there'll be some one sharing their time with you

I know what it is to be young

but you, you don't know what it is to be old

So my friend.

lets make music together

I'll play the old while you sing me the new

In time when your young days are over

there'll be some one sharing their time with you

there'll be some one sharing their time with you
