You're young in body but you're heart is wise
You search for a sign you look to the skies
And nothing ever seems to come to you
Yes you're young in spirit and your mind is true
And you wait and you wait but no one comes near
The faces in the crowd go by
Old men and women, young girls too
And you wonder what it is they want from you

And the cymbals flash a warning sign
And the drums beat like thunder before a great flood
And you watch the rain as it falls from the sky
And your spirit is young, and your mind is true
And inside you're soul you're yearning
For something that is pure

And you wonder what it is you're living for
And the voices ring, and they're telling you
Whispering in your ear
Something that is lovely
But with words that are hard to hear.

Yes you're young in body, and your mind is wise
And you watch the faces that drift in the crowd
And the ghosts that come over the hill
Your spirit floats with the oncoming tide
And you wonder where it is they're taking you
You're young in soul but your mind is true
And you wonder what Time will do to them, and you.
