46. 1914 Youth

Youth


What beautiful words are life & love as they ring in the ears of youth
In the glorious spring when the blithe birds sing and the sun shines bright
To hearts delight, how sweet they sound to the ears of youth

What beautiful words are life & love when hidden from view is the truth
Whether happy or sad, whether good or bad is the course to be run
Which is just begun, how sweet they sound in the ears of youth

What beautiful words are life & love when we hold our heads aloof
When the mind is free and we laugh with glee when the limb is strong
And there is nothing wrong, how sweet they sound in the ears of youth

What beautiful words are life & love when two hearts beat that need
No proof to show they are there for the other to teach and to lean upon as the
Years roll on, how sweet they sound in the ears of youth
