[Verse 1]
Baby, baby, brush the dust of youth from off your shoulder
Because the years of fretting days is right behind you
Don't return to the fields of green where rainbow secrets were told
Place your ragged doll with all the toys and things and deeds
[Pre-Chorus]
I will show you a game where the winner never wins
[Chorus]
Let your hair hang down
Wear the dress your mother wore
Let me sleep beside you
[Verse 2]
Lock away your childhood and throw away the key
For now the streets and city sounds will burn your eyes as coals
We shall drink the oldest wine, velvet skies will linger
Child, you're a woman, your heart and soul are free
[Pre-Chorus]
I will hold a lighted lamp and we shall walk together
[Chorus]
Let your hair hang down
Wear the dress your mother wore
Let me sleep beside you
Baby, baby, brush the dust of youth from off your shoulder
Because the years of fretting days is right behind you
Don't return to the fields of green where rainbow secrets were told
Place your ragged doll with all the toys and things and deeds
[Pre-Chorus]
I will show you a game where the winner never wins
[Chorus]
Let your hair hang down
Wear the dress your mother wore
Let me sleep beside you
[Verse 2]
Lock away your childhood and throw away the key
For now the streets and city sounds will burn your eyes as coals
We shall drink the oldest wine, velvet skies will linger
Child, you're a woman, your heart and soul are free
[Pre-Chorus]
I will hold a lighted lamp and we shall walk together
[Chorus]
Let your hair hang down
Wear the dress your mother wore
Let me sleep beside you
