WE WERE YOUNG

 **

WE WERE YOUNG

 WE HAD ALL THE ANSWERS WE THOUGHT WE'D EVER NEED

WE WERE YOUNG AND READY TO GO

WE WERE FEARLESS AND IT SHOWED

WE WENT EVERYWHERE WE COULD

EXPERIENCED AS MUCH AS WE COULD FIND

TOGETHER OR ALONE, WE JUST KEPT GOING

NO NIGHT EVER SEEMED TOO LONG

WERE YOUNG AND WE WERE STRONG

WE WERE ON FIRE FOR KNOWLEDGE

AND THE THINGS WE THOUGHT WE NEEDED THAT CHANGED DAY TO DAY

WE MADE SO MANY FRIENDS, BUT THEY SLIPPED AWAY

ONE BY ONE AS LIFE LED THEM DOWN DIFFERENT PATHS

WE WERE ONCE FREE, NOW I'M NOT SURE THAT I'D AGREE

SOMETIMES I MISS THOSE DAYS, THEY WERE KING

THEY ALWAYS RING LOUD IN THE HALLS OF MY MEMORY

AS I RECALL THE GLORY AND THE PAIN WE WENT THROUGH

WE HAD THE STARS IN THE SKIES, REFLECTED IN OUR EYES

MAGICS ON THE WAY

WE NEVER HAD ALL THE ANSWERS BUT WE STILL TRIED

WE HAD MUSIC TO SHARE, WOULDN'T BE DENIED

WE FILLED THE CONCERT HALLS. WE WEREN'T AFRAID TO DREAM

WE HAD SUNSHINE, WE HAD LOVE

WE ALL WANTED PEACE AND FREEDOM TO EXPRESS OURSELVES

WE WENT OUT OF OUR WAY TO MAKE A POINT

WE WERE YOUNG AND SOMETIMES WE MISSED OUT ON SO MUCH

BY NOT KNOWING WHAT WE HAD IN OUR HANDS

WHAT WOULD WE DO DIFFERENTLY

IF WE COULD DO IT ALL AGAIN

SOMETIMES I  MISS THOSE DAYS, WHEN LIFE GETS IN THE WAY
