Forever Young Songtext
von Brandi Carlile

I′m gonna play you one of my favorite songs from the '80s
Before we run out of time
I think everyone can relate to this song
Please sing along

Let us dance in style, let us dance for a while
Heaven can wait, we′re only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are they 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 a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for a sad men

Can you imagine when this race is won?
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders and getting in tune
The music′s made by a madman


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

Some of us are like water, some are like heat
Some are the melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later we′ll be gone
Why don't we stay young?

But it′s hard gettin' older without a cause
I don′t want to perish like a fading horse
Youth is like diamonds in the sun
And diamonds are forever

So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we′ve forgotten to play
So many dreams are swinging out of the blue
If we let them come true (you know you wanna sing it)

Forever young, I want to be forever young (yeah!)
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever?
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever young?


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

Thank you!
