0:37When we were young the world seemed so old
0:40Careless and cold
0:42We did what we were told in our lives
0:48When we were young
0:52Had the world by the tail' good would prevail
0:57Starships would sail
0:59And none of us would fail in this life
1:05Not when you're young
1:10We were drawn to whoever could keep us together
1:14And bound by the heavens above
1:18And we tried to survive
1:21Travelling at the speed of love
1:27Wooaaah when we were young
1:31When we adored the fabulous
1:35Wooaaah when we were young
1:39We were the foolish fearless
1:44Never knowing the cost of what we paid
1:49Letting someone else be strong
1:52Wooaaah when we were young
2:01In a moment of grace
2:04A long leap of faith
2:06There's still more glorious dawn awaits my life
2:13I'm here with the lovers
2:18Then we burned the bridges
2:21We're crossing over
2:23Just to see the firelight
2:27And the innocent are getting
2:30Over being old tonight
2:35Wooaaah when we were young
2:39When everything was what it seemed
2:44Wooaaah when we were young
2:48And everyday was how we dreamed
2:52Never knowing the cost of what we paid
2:57Letting someone else be strong
3:01Wooaaah when we were young
3:10And when you look at yourself tonight
3:14Are you someone you recognise
3:18You can take back what you've given away
3:23But it must be the last time
3:29Wooaaah when we were young
3:37Wooaaah when we were young
3:44When we were young
3:46Wooaaah when we were young
3:50When we adored the fabulous
3:54Wooaaah when we were young
3:59We were the foolish fearless
4:03Wooaaah when we were young
4:07We didn't know it wouldn't last
4:11Wooaaah when we were young
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 would 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 Travelling at the speed of love Wooaaah when we were young When we adored the fabulous Wooaaah when we were young We were the foolish fearless Never knowing the cost of what we paid Letting someone else be strong Wooaaah when we were young In a moment of grace A long leap of faith There's still more glorious dawn awaits my life I'm here with the lovers Then we burned the bridges We're crossing over Just to see the firelight And the innocent are getting Over being old tonight Wooaaah when we were young When everything was what it seemed Wooaaah when we were young And everyday was how we dreamed Never knowing the cost of what we paid Letting someone else be strong Wooaaah when we were young And when you look at yourself tonight Are you someone you recognise You can take back what you've given away But it must be the last time Wooaaah when we were young Wooaaah when we were young When we were young Wooaaah when we were young When we adored the fabulous Wooaaah when we were young We were the foolish fearless Wooaaah when we were young We didn't know it wouldn't last Wooaaah when we were young
