"Forever Young" lyrics

Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you gonna drop the bomb or not

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men

And can you imagine when this race is won?
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders, getting in tune
The music's played by the, the madman

Forever young, I wanna be forever young
Do you really wanna live forever, forever, and ever
Forever young, I wanna be forever young
Do you really wanna live forever, forever young

Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later, we all will be gone
Why don't we stay young?

It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't wanna perish like a fading horse
Youth's like diamonds in the sun
And diamonds are forever

So many adventures given up today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
Oh, let it come true

Forever young, I wanna be forever young
Do you really wanna live forever, forever, and ever
Forever young, I wanna be forever young
Do you really wanna live forever, forever young

Forever young
Forever young
Forever young
