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.

We had the same dreams

No one saw what we could see

We were younger, we were younger

Life in black and white

Became colourful and bright

We were younger, when we were younger

I’ve been livin’ like that

I’ve been lovin’ like that

All I ever wanted was something real and honest

I’ve been trippin’ like that

Sometimes I lost my head

Nothing that I wanted

(But it had to happen)

‘Cause some things never change

We’re feeling out of place

Our hearts still beat the same

From Berlin to L.A. ​

The same stars we are under

Like when we were younger

(Like when we were younger)

Movin’ on and lookin’ back

Holdin’ onto what we have

And the ocean is between us

I'm lookin’ at the sky

As the years are passing by

Like the colours of the leaves are changing the streets and

I’ve been trippin’ like that

Sometimes I lost my head

Nothing that I wanted

(But it had to happen)

‘Cause some things never change

We’re feeling out of place

Our hearts still beat the same

From Berlin to L.A. ​

The same stars we are under

Like when we were younger

(Like when we were younger)

I'm lookin’ at the sky

As the years are passing by

I'm lookin’ at the sky

(Like when we were younger)

‘Cause some things never change

We’re feeling out of place

Our hearts still beat the same

From Berlin to L.A. ​

The same stars we are under

Like when we were younger

I'm lookin’ at the sky (like when we were younger)

As the years are passing by, passing by (like when we were younger)
