What is a youth...

Paul Dubois: Chanteur Florentin

What is a youth? Impetuous fire. 
What is a maid? Ice and desire. 
The world wags on. 

A rose will bloom 
It then will fade 
So does a youth. 
So do-o-o-oes the fairest maid. 

Comes a time when one sweet smile 
Has its season for a while...Then love's in love with me. 
Some they think only to marry, Others will tease and tarry, 
Mine is the very best parry. Cupid he rules us all. 
Caper the cape, but sing me the song, 
Death will come soon to hush us along. 
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall. 
Love is a task and it never will pall. 
Sweeter than honey...and bitter as gall 
Cupid he rules us all
