We were young then
In a burgeoning decade
Painted and free
Dancing In heels
We were new then
Born from mischief
Butterflies amid the grey
The overcast, the gloom
Free
A canvass without masks
To say, this is us
Look
We are neither
We are all
Listen
And for a moment they saw us
And for a moment they danced
And for a moment it was new
Painted and free
But moments are fleeting
And the devil has a care
And the wild spirits of our youth
Fell into the darkness
We are old now
Those of us left to cry
Yet we are restless
To dance again
Listen
We have more to say
