Description
This is a song which deals with the relationship between good and evil. New England puritanism is at the core of the short story the song is based on, but Nathaniel Hawthorne's text can be seen on a more universal scale - we all are torn between these two extremes.
Lyrics
Young Goodman Brown Where’s your faith gone, young goodman Brown? Why do you stumble through darkness? What keeps haunting you, young goodman Brown? Don’t you forget where your heart is With the devil by your side You run and hide from what made you real But life is not meant to be black or white And you are not meant to have just one side Young Goodman Brown – Young Goodman Brown Hold your head up, young Goodman Brown I know what brought you confusion Don’t you worry, Young Goodman Brown We all have seen disillusion We’ve all seen the Gates of Hell They drag us down, it’s no mystery But there’s more to life than just being young And there’s more to life than just having fun Young Goodman Brown – Young Goodman Brown Time to go now, Young Goodman Brown I’ll no longer be your companion They won’t hurt you, Young Goodman Brown This is what I’m understanding They’ll just rob you of your sleep You’ll have thoughts so deep Like you’ve never had before Cause there’s more to life than just being young And there’s more to life than just having fun Young Goodman Brown – Young Goodman Brown
