Album Cover Because You're Young

Because You're Young

David Bowie

4

Psychodelicate girl - come out to play

Little metal faced-boy - don't stay away

They're so war-torn and resigned she can't talk any more

What are they trying to prove?

What would they like to find?

It's love back to front and no sides - like I say

These pieces are broken - like I say

These pieces are broken

Hope I'm wrong but I know

CHORUS

Because you're young - you'll meet a stranger some night

Because you're young - what could be nicer for you and it makes me sad

So I'll dance my life away

A million dreams, a million scars

He punishes hard - was loving her such a crime

She took back everything she said

Left him nearly out of his mind

They're people I know - people I love

They seem so unhappy - dead or alive

It's love back to front and no sides - like I say

These pieces are broken - like I say

These pieces are broken

Hope I'm wrong but I know

CHORUS

A million dreams

A million scars

A million (repeat ad inf.)
