Lyrics

WHEN WE WERE YOUNG words and music by John MELDRUM

RIDING DOWN THE ROAD, THE WIND BLOWS IN YOUR HAIR
NO PLACE TO GO, WE REALLY COULDN’T CARE
WHAT WOULD I GIVE TO BE THERE
BUT EVERYTHING I OWN

COULDN’T WE JUST GO BACK
TO WHEN WE WERE YOUNG
WHAT WOULD I GIVE TO BE THERE
BUT EVERYTHING I OWN

TIME HAS TAKEN EVERY LITTLE THING WE HAD
I’M STILL WAITING FOR OLD MAN TIME TO GIVE IT BACK

COULDN’T WE GO BACK TO WHERE WE COME FROM
SHOULDN’T WE GO BACK TO WHEN WE HAD OUR FUN
WOULDN’T I GO BACK TO WHEN WE WERE YOUNG

LYING IN OUR BED WE TOUCH, WE KISS, WE DIE
LOVERS FOR A LIFETIME SWEAR TO NEVER SAY GOOD BYE
WHAT WOULD I GIVE TO BE THERE
BUT EVERYTHING I OWN

TIME HAS TAKEN EVERY LITTLE THING WE HAD
I’M STILL WAITING FOR OLD MAN TIME TO GIVE IT BACK

COULDN’T WE GO BACK TO WHERE WE COME FROM
SHOULDN’T WE GO BACK TO WHEN WE HAD OUR FUN
WOULDN’T I GO BACK TO WHEN WE WERE YOUNG

SWEAR TO NEVER SAY GOODBYE (3X)
