When We Were Young

We took time to see the sun

Crossing rivers as we'd run

Chasing birds down by the lake

In the mud

We would climb up in the trees

Up high among the leaves

We were wild and we were free

When we were young

And now we're older

And we feel the world at our feet

As time turns we drift away

Wish we were young again

We built castles in the sand

Felt like emperors of the land

Making walls to stop the waves from coming up

We found joy in little things

Like imaginary scenes

Oh, I miss the way we were

When we were young

But now we're older

And we feel the world at our feet

As time turns we drift away

And, oh, how time flies

Then you realize forgotten dreams

Got lost along the way

Wish we were young again

Wish we were young again

But there's still so much to see

In this life in front of me

Like pages of a book still unturned

We could sail the seven seas

Even raise a family

We could dream just like we did

When we were young

'Cause now we're older

And we feel the world at our feet

As time turns we drift away

And oh how time flies

Then you realize forgotten dreams

Got lost along the way

Wish we were young again

Wish we were young again
