Young Years

Broken cars

Old guitars

Waitin' here for the time to pass

Time takes it's toll

Took it fast

Secret meetings

At the river's bend

Simple days

When I called you friend

Came a time

We went separate ways

[Chorus:]

Those were our young years

Our wings were flying in the sun

Now the winter at our windows

Feels so cold

Where are our young years

Everything's seen some better days

Hopes in which we sailed away

Lie all rusted on rocky ground

Here we sit with a schooner of ale

Dreaming of a wind that would make us sail

Taking us far away

Do you remember how it was

We had the moon and tide behind us

We used to take it in our stride

[Chorus]

Those were our young years

Our wings were flying in the sun

Now the winter at our windows

Feels so cold

Back in our young years

Sometimes the good would not die young

Now we live on memories alone

Of our young years

If we had the moon and tide behind us

We could still sail so far away

And time would pass and things would change

Our memories won't fade away

[Chorus]

Those were our young years

Our wings were flying in the sun

Now the winter at our windows

Feels so cold

Back in our young years

Sometimes the good would not die young

Now we live on memories alone

[Chorus]

Those were our young years

You know we'll live it all again

We could turn the tide

And sail it all away

back to our young years

Those were our young years.
