Remember when we had all the answers And ambitions bravery Innocent, we recognised the chances as opportunities Juvenile love story Challenging the strongest arguments with naked confidence Managing the contests and tournaments that faith alone presents Juvenile love story Remember when we listened to the others and let the world invade Broken then, listen you young lovers: the world is yours to make Juvenile love story

Down on the street parade they’re praying for rain A one in a million last ditch invitation for you to save ‘em and show your face Thoughts of yesterday for tomorrow Some they made up the rest they borrowed But good intentions go a long, long way We had the best intentions but sometimes life gets in the way… Far from the madding crowd can you still hear them? Do words on a wing reach into your reverie; the same thought repeating “Will they still need me?” Thoughts of yesterday for tomorrow Some they made up the rest they borrowed But good intentions go a long, long way We had the best intentions but sometimes life gets in the way…

All that you'll ever need And all that you'll ever know All that the world agrees And all that you're scared to show Ain't nothing in the scheme of things All that you'll ever lose And all that you'll ever gain All of the paths you choose And all the mistakes you make Ain't nothing in the scheme of things All that you leave behind And all of the reasons why All of the ties that bind The hurricane's hungry eye Ain't nothing in the scheme of things

Cool river flowing endlessly to the ocean Warm breeze blowing sets the ripples in motion Thin silver shivers of light dancing across the surface of the water Like flames trapped beneath the skin Flickering butterfly kisses on the water Take me down, down to the river Let the years wash away Let my youth never fade And let it roll on forever Swimming through the ashes of all those bridges we have burned Fool for believing in the moments we’d stolen World keep on turning River keep rolling Thin silver shivers of light dancing across the surface of the water Like flames trapped beneath the skin Flickering butterfly kisses on the water Take me down, down to the river Let the years wash away Let my youth never fade And let it roll on forever Swimming through the ashes of all those bridges we have burned

By Christopher Marlowe and Sir Walter Raleigh (last verse) Live with me, and be my love, And we will all the pleasures prove That hills and valleys, dales and fields, And all the craggy mountains yields. There will we sit upon the rocks, And see the shepherds feed their flocks, By shallow rivers, by whose falls Melodious birds sing madrigals. There will I make thee a bed of roses, With a thousand fragrant posies, A cap of flowers, and a kirtle Embroider’d all with leaves of myrtle. A belt of straw and ivy buds, With coral clasps and amber studs; And if these pleasures may thee move, Then live with me and be my love. LOVE’S ANSWER If that the world and love were young, And truth in every shepherd’s tongue, These pretty pleasures might me move, To live with thee and be thy love.

Written words that shape their meanings for an age Instructions for the mind to wander beyond the page Inheriting the old opinions we live to prove That living with our own decisions we sometimes lose sight of love Recognition in a moment, the sentences fit Neatly into understanding bit by bit Passing out of innocence and into life We recognise ourselves in others within the sight of love Instances that earn addictions and prove the world Is everything we once suspected but sometimes lose sight of love Is it any wonder there’s a lack of faith in politics and economics when nothings safe; The promises that force elections always prove that power in an individual is forced to lose sight of love.
