Tears of Youth Lyrics

The old men in my morning view

Go limping by the glass

They've conquered all the tears of youth

And can see their life at last

And in evening shadows they'll raise a cup

Of life to quench their thirst

And I'll join them one day too

If tears of youth don't get me first

At birth you cried inhaling hard

The air into your tender lungs

Now take your breath, your sighs, your words

And turn them into songs

And beneath a light or by a fire tell

Your story verse by verse

And I'll join you on the stage

If tears of youth don't get me first

And beneath a light or by a fire tell

Your story verse by verse

And I'll join you on the stage

If tears of youth don't get me first
