Lyrics Dear Youth - No Small Children

Dear Youth

Many years, many thorns
Many hopes, many boys
Beaten down just to be born
Finally in a place more warm
Colors jump it’s about time
For early days and sun to shine
Sleep no more 'cause just outside
A view that took so long to find
Dear youth, I’m good with the way that I am
Who knew, that 42 could be so grand
I’ve got no fixer-up boyfriend to hold my hand
I’m in bed before ten you wouldn’t understand
Dear youth, you got it all wrong
Who knew, that I could ever feel this strong
I’ve got a job and a car and a home of my own
Understand my own voice through an honest song
Dear youth
Nothing really just let it go
Breathe it in and love it so
Hold it tight and do recall
The way it feels before it falls
