Live It While You're Young
Written by Tony Norman, Nicola Stevens, Bruce Pont
Streets of London hurry home
Thru the evening rain
Homeless stranger all alone
Begging for small change
(Chorus)
Live it while you're young
That's what the old man said
When I put a coin into his hands
Live it while you're young
When you were younger than I am now
Did you chase the sun?
Tinker tailor soldier spy
What did you become?
What simple twist of Fate
Brought you to this time?
When all that's really left for you to say is
Live it while you're young
How many lovers filled your bed?
Did laughter turn to tears?
Do you curse the chances you missed back then?
Have they haunted you
Down thru the years?
I get home safe and warm
Drink a glass of wine
Play a message from a friend
But you're still on my mind
I can see you now
The secrets in your eyes
Out there on the cold and lonely streets
Live it while you're young
What simple twist of fate
Brought you to this time?
I will not forget the words you said
Live it while you're young
