Celebrate Youth lyrics
by Rick Springfield
I can see the older man looking at the younger man.
I can see the younger man looking at the boy.
Over there the older woman is looking at the younger woman.
I can see the younger woman looking at the girl.
'Cause every man sees in the younger man the hope.
And every woman sees in the younger girl the dream.
Everybody lives the pride and passion of the young.
From the womb to the tomb we will remember what it means.
To celebrate youth - celebrate -
those who have it - young ones.
Celebrate youth - celebrate - give them sight.
The future of the world's in the - celebrate -
Hands of children - young ones.
So celebrate youth - celebrate - teach them right.
Looking in a child's eye -
There's no hate and there's no lie
There's no black and there's no white.
I can see the older man
and sometimes in the older man
I still see the young boy burning in his eye.
Locked up here inside our spirit is the child
that we are
hear it.
Some of us will always fear it
and some will heed the cry.
But everybody sees in the younger one the hope.
And everybody sees in the younger one the dream.
Everybody lives the pride and passion of the young.
From the womb to the tomb we will remember what it means
To celebrate youth - celebrate -
those who have it - young ones. . . .
Looking in a child's face -
There's no pride and no disgrace
There's no struggle
there's no fight.
Everybody sees in the younger one the hope. . . .
Looking in a child's eye - . . .
Celebrate youth - celebrate -
those who have it - young ones. . . .
Celebrate youth - celebrate -
those who have it - young ones. . . .
Celebrate youth - celebrate -
those who have it - young ones. . . .
Looking in a child's eye - . . .
