Soft Cell Youth
Youth has gone
I heard you say
It doesn't matter
Anyway
Don't hide the photos
Or turn off the lights
I'm quite sure we've both seen
Funnier sights
Youth sleep
In a deep, deep sleep
Beauty is skin deep
Youth has gone
Though we're still young
It's hard, I know to believe
That I was somebody's son
The memories
Of what you once were
The memories of what
We both were
Youth sleep
In a deep, deep sleep
Beauty is skin deep
Youth has gone
And don't think I don't cry
We let ourselves slip
And now I ask myself why
I'm on my own
And don't think I really mind
When after all
The years have been fairly kind
Youth sleep
In a deep, deep sleep
Beauty is skin deep
Sleep
In a deep, deep sleep
Beauty is skin deep
Youth, youth, youth sleep
