Because you're young
by David Bowie

Psychodelicate girl - come out to play
Little metal faced-boy
don´t stay away
They´re so war-torn and resigned
she can´t talk any more
What are they trying to prove?
What would they like to find?
It´s love back to front and no sides
like I say
These pieces are broken - like I say
These pieces are broken
Hope I´m wrong but I know
[CHORUS]
Because you´re young
you´ll meet a stranger some night
Because you´re young -
what could be nicer for you
and it makes me sad
So I´ll dance my life away
A million dreams, a million scars
He punishes hard
was loving her such a crime
She took back everything she said
Left him nearly out of his mind
They´re people I know - people I love
They seem so unhappy - dead or alive
It´s love back to front and no sides
like I say
These pieces are broken - like I say
These pieces are broken
Hope I´m wrong but I know
[CHORUS]
A million dreams
A million scars
A million [repeat ad inf.]
