They were young and so sweet when their faces were neat… Now the daylight has gone so the evening they meet… (they meet) [Verse] And as their lives go on they sing their sweetest song As the shadows near they feel a tear so strong I guess they knew it all along (yeah) [Chorus] Look me in the eye and tell me that they never cry, Look me in the eye and tell me that they never lie, Never sigh (never sigh) Never die (never die) When they were young… [bridge] I guess they knew it all along (They knew it all along) Go on sweet song (go on) [Verse] As their time fades away they have too much to say… There are none left to mourn as all the white turns to grey (to grey) [Verse] And as the night is torn another new day’s born, Their time has worn they will not see the dawn… I guess they knew it all along (yeah) [Chorus] Look me in the eye and tell me that they never cry, Look me in the eye and tell me that they never lie, Never sigh (never sigh) Never die (never die) When they were young… [bridge] I guess they knew it all along (They knew it all along) Go on sweet song (go on) [Outro] They were young and so sweet, When their faces were neat… When they… Were young…
