lyrics

We Were Young
Hey friend
I know it’s been a while
Time keeps ticking on
And the distance measures miles

Lately, I’ve been thinking
About those times together
They are etched in my heart
Where they’ll be forever

Freedom
Shining in our eyes
reckless laughter
occasional cries
Crazy plans, adventurous souls
Feet off the ground, but still taking a stand
We were young, we were young
Dreaming of changing the world
We were young, we were young
But, all the while
We were just finding ourselves

Today,
it seems so funny
That we’re on our own
Finally free and making money

Life ain’t anyways easy
And time is never enough
But, the only escape I need
Is to stop, and think of us

Freedom
Shining in our eyes
reckless laughter
occasional cries
Crazy plans, adventurous souls
Feet off the ground, but still taking a stand
We were young, we were young
Dreaming of changing the world
We were young, we were young
But, all the while
We were just finding ourselves

Oh, oh
We were free, free, free, free
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We were free, free, free, free

Freedom
Shining in our eyes
reckless laughter
occasional cries
Crazy plans, adventurous souls
Feet off the ground, but still taking a stand
We were young, we were young
Dreaming of changing the world
We were young, we were young
But, all the while
We were just finding ourselves
