When We Were Younger

I never really got why we're here Just look at all we build in our lives Then we all disappear A few of us are born with so much While most of us just chasing down a dream That we just can't touch So, why we try so hard in this place? When pain and suffering's a guarantee And happiness is a phase I wonder if one day we're at peace Or will this whole world just become like the Middle East? But when I was younger, when I was younger I had the answers, I've got to say But all of my answers, now that I'm older Turned into questions, in front of me, yeah I wonder where we go when we die If there is anything past all our sun and our sky 'Cause airports only take us so high Is it hidden in the stars? What's the answer to your soul's light? Wonder do we get to come back I wonder if I will remember these questions I've asked Or will I just start over again? I hope it's not too hard to find all of my old friends But when we were younger, when we were younger I had the answers, I've got to say But all of my answers, now that I'm older Turned into questions, in front of me But when we were younger, when we were younger I had the answers, I've got to say But all of my answers, now that we're older Turned into questions, in front of me, yeah I wonder if we get one true love Or maybe there's a few out there Or maybe not even one I wonder if it's made up by man I wonder if love is what we make with our own two hands I wonder why I write all these songs I wonder if you know what you're saying when you sing along And will you know my name when I'm gone? Or are you just too sick of these love songs? When we were younger, when we were younger I had the answers, I've got to say But all of my answers, now that I'm older Turned into questions, in front of me Oh, when we were younger, when we were younger I had the answers, I've got to say But all of my answers, now that I'm older Just turned into questions, right in front of me Right in front of me, in front of me Everything changes, in front of me, yeah
