"Young Once" lyrics

"Young Once"

We were young once like you are now
They held us close, they laid us down
You remind us to leave our furrowed brows
Our broken boughs
Our broken boughs

Hands and fingers, knees and toes
We cannot hold how fast time goes
You only get this one chance to grow
So take it slow
Take it slow

Little baby, sleep to dream
A melody of bright moonbeams
And sunny days of harmony
Fall asleep, fall asleep, fall asleep
