Oh Very Young

Oh Very Young Through a looking glass we can gain a glimpse from are past In a ride to the beach to taste the fresh lobster & beer We get a glimpse of the past by what's ahead in are future All of us get only one chance at which to roll the dice In mere solace we could learn another page has been turned It's an honest approach to the one's that will serve Outside the grass is green plush against the curb Oh very young we only get a glimpse at the dance The horse's mare is caught between the lines A faint heart will never last the true test in time We will often push at the heart to light the spark of what were waiting for Shapes in the clouds list a line formation To capture a smile out of the elderly on a vacation We are all in search of a treat a given chance to meet & greet Look at your reflection on the surface of the lake A cool experience in which to fondly bring a date Yet inside we hide behind barbed wire fences in certain trenches The given chance at a humble romance from a glance The heart is an opened door by which to explore so much more The eclipse of the sun has tainted my inner vision on a quest Bask in the vast array at the circus scene filled with cotton candy To swing down at the family porch swing We shall smile amidst the battle that rage from within Other's have a hard time at this by holding their breath to count to ten Long lines in the visible sand it is my hope that you all will understand
