We Were Young

 We Were Young

FAWM # 10

We didn’t know the truth but we saw the lie        

No one gave any answers when we asked why     

So we cried as we tried to reach the sky              

We had a good time baby getting high          

 

Love was a loose word on my tongue

Those years ago when we were young

Oh we had a song to be sung

In those days when we were young

 

Dancing romancing discovering about love

Kissing you sweetly completely the moon above

In the backseat of my car we took it far

Looking back I wished I learned the guitar

 

Love was a loose word on my tongue

Those years ago when we were young

Oh we had a song to be sung

In those days when we were young

 

We had wings but we feared leaving the ground

In a world lost where would the secrets be found

I held your hand we shared a common cause

Who were these teachers with their wicked laws

 

Love was a loose word on my tongue

Those years ago when we were young

Oh we had a song to be sung

In those days when we were young

 

If I could travel back in time I wouldn’t change a single thing

Now the blast of the past is simply about a crime I sing

Listen teens new to the scene understand I walked in your shoes

You got pop music and rock but only the old know the blues

 

Why do the good things simply fade to black

It’s hard even for the memories to come back

Trapped in the very future we feared to come

The slavedriver beats on his wicked drum

 

Love was a loose word on my tongue

Those years ago when we were young

Oh we had a song to be sung

In those days when we were young
