"Christiaan No" lyrics

"Christiaan No"

Christiaan no no no, Christiaan no
Take the time to take the time to take it slow
You'll be leaving soon enough to make the tear drops flow
Christiaan no

You will grow grow grow Christiaan grow
You will glow like the moonlight on the snow
You will fly like the snowflakes when the wind begins to blow
Take it slow, take it slow

And don't listen when the people put you on
And don't cry over someone who is gone
I will carry you until you carry on
Carry on son, carry on

Cause it's hard to know what you want to be
When you're just a little boy who's turning three
Or you're just a little boy who's only turning twenty-nine
Take your time, take your time

Christiaan yes yes yes, Christiaan yes
You can prevent the world from being repossessed
I must confess that we've left it in a mess
But you can save it if you try to do your best
Christiaan yes, Christiaan yes, Christiaan yes, Christiaan yes
