This boy, oh God, a madness in his eyes,
To tame his spirit, such a heavy guise.
For slowly, slowly, stirs the restless heart,
And bit by bit, love tears the world apart.
Oh, this boy, oh God, a madness in his eyes,
To tame his spirit, such a heavy guise.
For slowly, slowly, stirs the restless heart,
And bit by bit, love tears the world apart.
Oh, this boy, oh God, a madness in his eyes.
We've seen so much, we've learned along the way,
The heart's a bargain, life itself the pay.
Yes, we've seen so much, we've learned along the way,
The heart's a bargain, life itself the pay.
How can one fall, so quickly, to despair?
To tame his spirit, such a heavy care.
For slowly, slowly, stirs the restless heart,
And bit by bit, love tears the world apart.
Oh, this boy, oh God, a madness in his eyes.
It may be so, you see,
That dust is gold to thee.
A moment's laughter turns
To endless misery.
It may be so, you see,
That dust is gold to thee.
A moment's laughter turns
To endless misery.
So swiftly, never let your heart be spun,
To tame his spirit, such a task begun.
For slowly, slowly, stirs the restless heart,
And bit by bit, love tears the world apart.
Oh, this boy, oh God, a madness in his eyes.
We've seen so much, we've learned along the way,
The heart's a bargain, life itself the pay.
Yes, we've seen so much, we've learned along the way,
The heart's a bargain, life itself the pay.
How can one fall, so quickly, to despair?
To tame his spirit, such a heavy care.
Oh, this boy, oh God, a madness in his eyes,
La la la la la la la.
