Allan Wilson - Never Young Lyrics

Oh look, look at her then
She was so small, never again
As she slept in my arms, I thought of a friend
Who I'd lost so long ago
Through your eyes and I could see the rain falling
Bringing life to the ring of the world
But time drains away now from me
Never young my son
Never carry the wind off the water
I'll be never young my son
Never again
Oh, I will never see her for the first time
I'll never hold her hand
Never tell her I'm falling in love
For the last time
Never again
Can you hear the children calling my name?
Can you see them waving now?
Can you feel that my heart is in pain
For all melts into air, into thin air?
All my days have past like rain on the mountain
Like a wind in the meadow
I am older but I am the same
Never young my son
Never carry the wind off the water
I'll be never young my son
Never again
Oh, I will never see her for the first time
I'll never hold her hand
Never tell her I'm falling in love
For the last time
Never again
Never young my son
Never carry the wind off the water
I'll be never young my son
Never again
Oh, I will never see her for the first time
I'll never hold her hand
Never tell her I'm falling in love
For the last time
Never again

Oh look, look at her then
She was so small, never again
As she slept in my arms, I thought of a friend
Who I'd lost so long ago
Through your eyes and I could see the rain falling
Bringing life to the ring of the world
But time drains away now from me
Never young my son
Never carry the wind off the water
I'll be never young my son
Never again
Oh, I will never see her for the first time
I'll never hold her hand
Never tell her I'm falling in love
For the last time
Never again
Can you hear the children calling my name?
Can you see them waving now?
Can you feel that my heart is in pain
For all melts into air, into thin air?
All my days have past like rain on the mountain
Like a wind in the meadow
I am older but I am the same
Never young my son
Never carry the wind off the water
I'll be never young my son
Never again
Oh, I will never see her for the first time
I'll never hold her hand
Never tell her I'm falling in love
For the last time
Never again
Never young my son
Never carry the wind off the water
I'll be never young my son
Never again
Oh, I will never see her for the first time
I'll never hold her hand
Never tell her I'm falling in love
For the last time
Never again
