When We Were Young

Everybody loves the things you do

From the way you talk, to the way you move

Everybody here is watching you

'Cause you feel like home, you're like a dream come true

But if by chance you're here alone

Can I have a moment before I go?

'Cause I've been by myself all night long

Hoping you're someone I used to know

You look like a movie

You sound like a song

My God, this reminds me

Of when we were young

Let me photograph you in this light

In case it is the last time that we might

Be exactly like we were before we realised

We were sad of getting old, it made us restless

It was just like a movie

It was just like a song

I was so scared to face my fears

Nobody told me that you'd be here

And I swear you'd moved overseas

That's what you said when you left me

You still look like a movie

You still sound like a song

My God, this reminds me

Of when we were young

Let me photograph you in this light

In case it is the last time that we might

Be exactly like we were before we realised

We were sad of getting old, it made us restless

It was just like a movie

It was just like a song

When we were young

When we were young

When we were young

When we were young

It's hard to admit that everything just takes me back

To when you were there

To when you were there

And a part of me keeps holding on just in case it hasn't gone

'Cause I still care

Do you still care?

It was just like a movie

It was just like a song

My God, this reminds me

Of when we were young

When we were young

When we were young

When we were young

When we were young

Let me photograph you in this light

In case it is the last time that we might

Be exactly like we were before we realised

We were sad of getting old, it made us restless

Oh, I'm so mad I'm getting old, it makes me reckless

It was just like a movie

It was just like a song

When we were young
