Oh Very Young
Published by One Muslim under 1974, Buddha and Chocolate Box, Oh Very Young, Yusuf Islam on 2:32 AMOh very young
What will you leave us this time
You're 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 daddy's best jeans
Denim Blue fading up to the sky
And though you want them (HIM)to last forever
You know they (HE) never will
You know they (HE) never will
And the patches make the goodbye harder still
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
There'll 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 heaven
And though you want to last forever
You know you never will
You know you never will
And the goodbye makes the journey harder still
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
You're only dancing on this earth for a short while
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time

I like Cat Stevens. That was nice, kind of wish the song was longer.
His voice is great, and now going better days by days compared to his Cat Stevens fanatic era. The wonderful thing is how he 61 years old oldies are able to preserved his beautiful voice up to this time. Only a few lifetime singers are able to do that.
