Wisdom Of Youth

It can get you to go higher Higher than you ever thought you’d go Wheel you in a spiral On a journey to the great unknown Where nature and her forces Constitute the only truth I love it most of all The wisdom of youth It can spur you on to greatness To triumph over nagging fears To overcome all obstacles The vision of your destination clear And it lets you choose the reckless And oftentimes the most dangerous route I love it most of all The wisdom of youth I wish I had it back again The urge to sip from every mountain stream Where every season promises A host of golden, open-ended dreams And every mornings joyful With the prospect of the days and nights to come I love it most of all The wisdom of the young O beautiful innocence O wisdom of youth Will you walk with me a while Down laneways walled with summer fruits And in the silence of the evening We’ll look west at the last light of the sun Fading away I love it most of all The wisdom of the young It’s the God’s honest truth You can’t bate the youth The God’s honest truth.
