Youth (BBC Whistle Test) Songtext
von Soft Cell

Youth has gone
I heard you say
It doesn′t matter
Anyway
Don't hide the photos
Or turn off the lights
I′m quite sure we've both seen
Funnier sights

You
Sleep in a deep deep sleep
Beauty is skin deep


Youth has gone
Though we're still young
It′s hard I know to believe
That I was somebody′s son
The memories
Of what you once were
The memories of what
We both were

You
Sleep in a deep deep sleep
Beauty is skin deep

Youth has gone
And don't think I don′t cry
We let ourselves slip
And now
I ask myself why
I'm on my own
And don′t think I really mind
When after all
The years have been fairly kind

You
Sleep in a deep deep sleep
Beauty is skin deep
Sleep in a deep deep sleep
Beauty is skin deep

Youth... Youth... Youth... Sleep
