Lyrics
Flower of Youth ?D. Furlong Ó2004
There?s mysteries we all have to figure out
Like where to put your nose when it?s time for your first kiss
It?s either try your luck or go without
Sometimes you can?t do better than hit or miss
Chorus:
When you?re old enough you?ll understand
How the flower of youth was in your hand
It?s easy looking back at where you?ve been
When you?re old enough it?s far too late
To know what you really should appreciate
And times like these will never come again
They say that youth is wasted on the young
Well I?m not sure that?s so, you?re just tender at the start
There?s lessons to be learned by everyone
And the ones you keep are the ones you learn by heart
Chorus
Every time you mend takes a little longer
You know it must be so, even when it hurts
Whatever doesn?t kill you makes you stronger
But if you never hurt at all that?s even worse
Chorus
