Because you're young You'll meet a stranger some night Beca… - David Bowie

" "
Because you're young You'll meet a stranger some night
Because you're young
What could be nicer for you
And it makes me sad
So I'll dance my life away
A million dreams, a million scars
...Left him nearly out of his mind
They're people I know - people I love
They seem so unhappy - dead or alive

Additional quotes by David Bowie

Let's dance for fear your grace should fall Let's dance for fear tonight is all

Some make you sing and some make you scream,
One makes you wish that you'd never been seen.
But there's a shop on the corner that's selling papier-mache,
Making bullet-proof faces, Charlie Manson, Cassius Clay.
If you want it, boys, get it here, thing.

- Sweet Thing

Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere, angel
Come get up my baby.
Look at that sky, life's begun
Nights are warm and the days are young
Come get up my baby.

Because you're young You'll meet a stranger some night Because you're young What could be nicer for you And it makes me sad So I'll dance my life awa… - David Bowie
