Janis Ian — Forever Young 1998

[Verse 1] Can you see the early morning chill On the frost that covers this cold hill? Can you hear the high and lonesome sound Of shovels striking ground? [Verse 2] Can you feel the earth begin to move As though judgment day had come too soon? Can you taste the earth upon her lips Like one last lover's kiss? [Verse 3] Her memory haunts his heart Her body burned its mark Her soul has flown from his embrace No more to fear the dark [Verse 4] Oh jealousy, where is your sting? Who knows the poison fruit you bring? But fools rush in where angels fear And lose thе love they hold most dear [Verse 5] Wе will watch him riding through the gates To the prison cell that now awaits He will never no more see the sun And she will be forever young [Outro] He will never no more see the sun And she will be forever young
