To Try for the Sun
We stood in the windy cityThe gypsy boy and IWe slept on the breeze in the midnightWith a raindrop and tears in our eyesAnd who's going to be the oneTo say it was no good what we doneI dare a man to say I'm too youngFor I'm going to try for the sunWe huddled in the derelict buildingAnd when he thought I was asleepHe lay his poor coat 'round my shoulderAnd shivered there beside me in a heapAnd who's going to be the oneTo say it was no good what we doneI dare a man to say I'm too youngFor I'm going to try for the sunWe sang and cracked the sky with laughterOur breath turned to mist in the coldOur years put togtehr counted thirtyBut our eyes told the dawn that we were oldAnd who's going to be the oneTo say it was no good what we doneI dare a man to say I'm too youngFor I'm going to try for the sunMirror mirror hanging in the skyWon't you look down what's happening here belowSongtexteI stand here singing to the flowersSo very few people really knowAnd who's going to be the oneTo say it was no good what we doneI dare a man to say I'm too youngFor I'm going to try for the sunWe stood in the windy cityThe gypsy boy and IWe slept on the breeze in the midnightWith a raindrop and tears in our eyesAnd who's going to be the oneTo say it was no good what we doneI dare a man to say I'm too youngFor I'm going to try for the sun Aus Songtexte Mania
