Youth of my dreams
Where do you wander
When I'm no longer fast asleep?
Where do you travel
Are your journeys dark and deep?
Youth of my dreams
What are you thinking
Can I share your secrets too?
Let me in on your thoughts
Speak frankly to me, of you.
Youth of my dreams
Are you safe when I'm awake
Are you secure completely?
I'm ready to listen
Lodging your thoughts discreetly.
Youth of my dreams
I'm begging
Please don't hide away.
I need you to be close
I’m hoping you'll want to stay.
Youth of my dreams
Spirit of my younger nights
Don't say it's goodbye.
Take me to your Neverland
Show this old man how to fly.
Youth of my dreams
You’re here less often
Now my tired old body ages.
I hold to a belief that you will return
Before death turns the final pages.
