Out on the Highway

The women are a-weeping

For their blue-eyed son

The men are all beaten

'Cos their day is done

You were out on the highway

With the stars in your eyes

Just saying 'alas alas alas

We were too young to die

Too young'

The sky is blue and purple

And the moon is proud

And in the churchyard they are whisperin'

Beneath the ground

You were out on the highway

With the stars in your eyes

Singing 'alas alas alas

We were too young to die

Too young'

Be good to yourself

Be good to your heart

Be good to yourself

Love with your heart

Reach out in life

Reach out in death

And love will be your requiem

Well if you had the world at your feet

If you had the love that you seek

We are the stars we are the sky...

We're too young

Too young
