You So young Ripely falling from the strangely fruited trees So full of life Why do you worry about what lies ahead? So young Yet hanging onto every word as if it means everything You don't have to worry young one, In time you will learn To stop being so predictable and settle into life's heavy burdens and "what ifs" Your life will stop one day But the world will never stop rotating for you Young one, We have a long way to go And you must learn that we do not fall into to love But grow in it You have so much to learn But life is not about learning love, Life is about living Living with all your newly profound wisdom Young one, Do not worry about the future Do not worry about what has happened The past does not define you or your future Young one, You must learn to live In the moment And not to turn your back on life, But to take it by the hand And let it guide you to who you really are Young one, Close your eyes Picture you as who you've always wanted to be Open your eyes And that is who you are.

Young one
You So young Ripely falling from the strangely fruited trees So full of life Why do you worry about what lies ahead? So young Yet hanging onto every word as if it means everything You don't have to worry young one, In time you will learn To stop being so predictable and settle into life's heavy burdens and "what ifs" Your life will stop one day But the world will never stop rotating for you Young one, We have a long way to go And you must learn that we do not fall into to love But grow in it You have so much to learn But life is not about learning love, Life is about living Living with all your newly profound wisdom Young one, Do not worry about the future Do not worry about what has happened The past does not define you or your future Young one, You must learn to live In the moment And not to turn your back on life, But to take it by the hand And let it guide you to who you really are Young one, Close your eyes Picture you as who you've always wanted to be Open your eyes And that is who you are.
