When We Were Young
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Talk to you, the same old thing (whoa)
Meet you at ten around the corner of downer street (whoa whoa oh, whoa, whoa whoa oh)
Yeah, okay, your girlfriend's away (whoa)
So does that mean that I can come and take her place? (whoa whoa oh, whoa, whoa whoa oh)
'Cause when we're together it feels like it did
When we were younger, we were better
Well, I remember, oh
When we were young, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When we were young
What we do, it's all up to you (whoa)
I bet she wouldn't mind if I spent a night or two (whoa whoa oh, whoa, whoa whoa oh)
And don't you know it's inevitable (whoa)
It's just a matter of time 'til you see it's just you and me (whoa whoa oh, whoa, whoa whoa oh)
'Cause now I know I can see there it will be
When we're together we'll be older
I remember, oh
When we were young, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When we were young
Remember when I (remember when I)
Remember when, whoa
You kissed me
Under a tree
And you carved initials:
You and me, l-o-v-e
When we were young, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When we were young
You and me under the tree (when we were young)
You and me under the tree (when we were young)
You and me under the tree (when we were young)
You and me under the tree (when we were young)
When we were young
