Passenger – When We Were Young

When We Were Young

We used to never say ‘never’
we used to think we’d live forever
flying free beneath the sun
Days go running and hiding
and the weeks go slipping and sliding
Years leave quicker every time they come
Remember when we were young

Look back to the best of days
collecting our yesterdays
that used to build up one by one
oh, how we beg and we borrow
say ‘We do it tomorrow’
but tomorrow never seems to come

We used to never say ‘never’
we used to think we’d live forever
flying free beneath the sun
Days go running and hiding
and the weeks go slipping and sliding
Years leave quicker every time they come
Remember when we were young

We were boys on the beach
everything was in reach
I know it’s hard to remember
Oh, how the years, they vanish
I always wanted to learn spanish
and travel ’round South America

We used to never say ‘never’
we used to think we’d live forever
flying free beneath the sun
Days go running and hiding
and the weeks go slipping and sliding
Years leave quicker every time they come
Do you remember when we were young?

We used to never say ‘never’
we used to think we’d live forever
flying free beneath the sun
Days go running and hiding
and the weeks go slipping and sliding
Years leave quicker every time they come
Do you remember when we were young?

Do you remember when we were young?
Do you remember when we were young?
Do you remember when we were young?
