You're young for a golden moment, you sigh and it flies
away
And then in the silent September, you dream of the music
of May.
You're young for a shining hour, but soon it's remember-
when,
Take hold of that golden moment,
For once it's gone, it never comes back again.
(music interlude)
Take hold of that golden moment,
For once it is gone, it never comes back.
You cry, still it won't come back,
It's gone and never comes back again.
