When We Were Young

Do you wanna dance? She says to me Showing up like an angel from a dream She made the first move Now is this what it seems? No time to think 'cause now I'm off my feet And with our eyes entwined we danced through the night And we lost ourselves in that beautiful lie That our youth would never die Through all those nights with our lives ahead of us When just the thrill of living was enough You took your hand in mine And we got drunk off the rush Will you play that song for me? The one we heard when our lives felt so free 'Cause now we see it all differently But in a different time love was our release But why don't we try to keep it alive? 'Cause I thought we'd dance 'til the stars they would die But now I know why Through all those nights with our lives ahead of us When just the thrill of living was enough You took your hand in mine And we got drunk off the rush But when that spark had faded, dissipated With the setting sun We became so jaded So tell me baby, maybe we did it better when we were young Maybe we did it better when we were young Maybe we did it better when we were young We had the world at our fingertips But it was soon lost, lost to the darkness Before we ever could have realized it It was gone, gone forever Through all those nights with our lives ahead of us When just the thrill of living was enough You took your hand in mine And we got drunk off the rush But when that spark had faded, dissipated With the setting sun We became so jaded So tell me baby, maybe we did it better when we were young Maybe we did it better when we were young Maybe we did it better when we were young
