Broken cars, old guitars Waiting here for the time to pa**, Time takes it toll - it took it fast Secret meetings at the rivers bend Simple days when I called you friend Came a time, we went separate ways Those were our young years Our wings were drying in the sun Now the winter, at our window feels so cold Where are our young years Everything seemed better days Boats in which we sailed away Lie all rusted on rocky ground Here we sit with a schooner of ale Dreaming of a wind thatll make us sail Taking us far away Do you remember how it was? We had the moon and tide behind us We used to take it up take it up! Those were our young years Our wings were drying in the sun
Now the winter, at our window feels so cold Back in our young years Sometimes the good did not die young Now we live on memories alone Of our young years If we had the moon and tide behind us We could still sail so far away And time would pa** And things would change And memories would fade away Those were our young years Our wings were drying in the sun Now the winter, at our window feels so cold Back in our young years Sometimes the good did not die young Now we live on memories alone Those were our young years You know well live it all again We can turn the tide and sail away Back to our young years Those were our young years
