Oh very young

Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
Youre only dancing on this earth for a short while
And though your dreams may toss and turn you now
They will vanish away like your daddys best jeans
Denim blue fading up to the sky
And though you want them to last forever
You know they never will
You know they never will
And the patches make the goodbye harder still
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
Therell never be a better chance to change your mind
And if you want this world to see a better day
Will you carry the words of love with you
Will you ride the great white bird into heavenAnd though you want to last forever
You know you never will
You know you never will
And the goodbye makes the journey harder stil
lOh very young
What will you leave us this time
Youre only dancing on this earth for a short while
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time

Rhea was colicky and I was alone in the house. I played this song over and over and danced in my own fashion with her in my arms for what seemed like hours. The opening chords never fail to bring a stifled sob. I so wish the best for her.
