Nineteen Forever — текст песни (Joe Jackson)

Sometimes I feel so alive

Sometimes I see so clear

Just like the way we always were

So young and free from fear



I lose my fear of war and dying

And all the clouds just disappear

Only my mirror sees me crying

Each time I lose another year . . .



Wouldnt be a drag to be like you

Settling down and having kids

And telling them what to do

Well Im gonna stay . . .19 forever



We can do magic in these times

Be what we want to be

Well all be rock n roll stars

Immortal on tv



And if you see me looking tired

Ive just been sleeping thought the day

But I got something to keep me wired

So we can dance the night away



Wouldnt it be a drag to be like them

Theyre gonna sell out everything

But I wont get fooled again

Cause Im gonna be . . .19 forever



You better believe it - you know my dreams still alive

You can love it or leave it

But Im never gonna be 35
