How can a young heart stay pure?
It's so hard to stop and listen
Drive too fast to read the signs
It's all a blur, it's all a blur

Can you taste the maple?
Sunshine on a birthday
You've got to feed the wild birds
He knows every one that falls to the ground
That falls to the ground

Look for the old road
Take a lesson from the ant
He has no king to force him on
Can you hold fire and not be burned?
And not be burned

Run, don't go near that house
Drink deep from your own well
A lion waits to steal all peace
But only you put teeth in his mouth
Put teeth in his mouth

Be still young heart, be still, be still
Be still young heart, be still, be still
