Virtuoso No. 3

Young Heart

Do you see yourself in me?
Have I made you proud?
I'm still learning that everyting comes around.
Nothing ever comes for free.
I'm trying hard and you need to believe.
You didn't bring me up to be a fool.
But still I wait,
Can I just say:
Hello, mother.
Hello, father.
Can you hear me?
Can you see me?
I'm trying to be better.
Is it working?
Am I ever going to make something of myself?
Put the past upon the shelf.
I'm looking for a place to start,
I'm just a young heart.
There's no regrets,
Just unwanted memories.
Can we please just forget what was said?
Shake my hand,
I'm with you till the end.
But still I wait,
Can I just say:
I can't make it on my own,
I need you by my side.
Hello, mother.
Hello, father.
Can you hear me?
Can you see me?
I'm trying to be better.
Is it working?
Am I ever going to make something of myself?
Put the past upon the shelf.
I'm looking for a place to start,
I'm just a young heart.
I'm just a young heart.
Sitting at the water's edge,
My reflection's not so clear.
I thought by now in my life I'd have overcome this fear.
Have I done right by you?
Have I done right by me?
Hello, mother.
Hello, father.
Can you hear me?
Can you see me?
I'm trying to be better.
Is it working?
Am I ever going to make something of myself?
Put the past upon the shelf.
I'm looking for a place to start,
I'm just a young heart.
I'm just a young heart.
