When You Were Young

Lyrics

When you were young
And full of life
For so many virtuous things you'd strive

Eager to grow
And to explore
The world unseen

Where did you go?
When did I lose your track?
Where did you go?
And when will you be back?

Past things will fade
And rot and rust
As your high ideals turn to dust

When did you lose
Your will to live?
What was the mistake you could not forgive?

Where did you go?
When did you run away?
Where did you go?
What caused your dismay?

Where did you go?
Where did I lose your track?
I miss you so
So when will you be back?
