From the soundtrack of ''Romeo and Juliet'' 1968 by Franco Zeffirelli. 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 does the fairest maid Comes a time when one sweet smile Has it's season for awhile Then love's in love with me Some may think only to marry Others will tease and tarry Mine is the very best parry Cupid he rules us all Caper the caper sing me the song Death will come soon to hush us along Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall Love is a past time that never will pall Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall Cupid he rules us all A rose will bloom It then will fade So does a youth So does the fairest maid
