Young Man Dies - David Wilcox
There's a young man dying
As he stands beside the sea
You can see him smiling unbelievably free:
Wind in his hair light in his eyes
He looks a lot like you and you look so surprised
That he would send you on your way
With no good-byes
But he can't go and you can't stay,
'cause in the years it takes
To make one man wise the young man dies
Meanwhile you're sailing
As you wave good-bye to shore
You're anticipating what these new days
Will hold in store
It's the mystery of the ocean
But now he's in over his head
This is no place for the young man
He's got to send you on instead
And still you're looking so surprised
That this change has come as prophesied
But the years won't compromise
'cause in the years it takes
To make one man wise the young man
The young man dies
He was such a lonely boy
Yeah but he could dream all right
He could picture you a perfect sunrise
In the middle of your darkest night
And he could take a sip from someday
Like he had a secret well
He could listen to the voices calling
From a distant time will tell
It's you in that picture where you're looking far away
Like you hear a whisper of the things
You'll know someday
But back then your heart was hungry
For something hard to find; you were
Just holding out for someday
But you've left that pain behind
'cause he walked you through those mountains
For as long as he could bear
He never reached the fountain
But he could take you there
The young man's dying
'cause in the years it takes to make one man wise
The young man
The young man
The young man
