When we were young the world seemed so old
|
Careless and cold, we did what we were told in our lives
|
When we were young
|
Had the world by the tail
|
Good would prevail
|
Starships set sail
|
And none of us would fail in this life
|
Not when you're young
|
We were drawn to whoever
|
Could keep us together
|
And bound by the heavens above
|
And we tried to survive
|
Traveling at the speed of love
|
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
When we adored the fabulous
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
We were the foolish fearless
|
Never knowing the cost of what we paid
|
Letting someone else be strong
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
|
In the moment of grace
|
A long leap of faith
|
There's still more glory stored away
|
It's my life
|
I'm here with the lovers
|
And we burn the bridges we're crossing over
|
Just to see the firelight
|
And the innocent are getting over
|
Being old tonight
|
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
When everything was what it seemed
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
And every day was how we dreamed
|
Never knowing the cost of what we paid
|
Letting someone else be strong
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
|
And when you'll look at yourself tonight
|
Are you someone you recognize?
|
You can take back what you've given away
|
But it must be the last time
|
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
When we were young
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
When we adored the fabulous
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
We were the foolish fearless
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
We didn't know it wouldn't last
|
Whoa
|
When we were young
|
|

|
When We Were Young
|
| Take That |
