The Myth of Youth

I was what you wanted I saw your eyes reaching toward it The one you never thought you'd get Now i'm a picture in your wallet Everything was simpler then Nothing gained no one losing We held the future in our hands Now we've got nothing but the present Tell me i'm a little bit Like i was when i met you It didn't end the way that we wanted it Now we're just breath in a statue I am here to love you But i don't know if i can What if all i ever will become Is nothing but a man I am here to love you But i don't know what that means I just want to feel how i feel Not wonder if it's real I want you to be real I knew what i wanted then I was living for the summer Soon we would be growing up And we could finally have each other Now that i am looking back All i needed was to wonder But we let ourselves forget to forget And so we ended in an answer I am here to love you But i don't know who i am If only i could just forget to ask Take me to my younger years Running round the woods With all my useless dreams No one could tell me what was real When you're young you can forget Anything at all And you wear it like a mirror
