[Verse 1]
Walking through the city we grew up in, everything has changed again
I remember fighting to believe in truth and how the good will win

But we were young, almost in love
Too scared to reach out for what was

[Verse 2]
Walking past the house that you grew up in, man, it looks so different now
Remembering the story of your first kiss, the feeling of my heart ripped out

[Chorus]
And we were young, almost in love
Too scared to reach out for what was
Looking back, we tried to laugh
City kids, the ghosts of past

[Verse 3]
You were just a girl, you wrote a letter, it said that we were dearest friends
I push myself to read a little further, it said we would be 'til we're dead

[Chorus]
But we were young, almost in love
Too scared to reach out for what was
Looking back, we tried to laugh
City kids, the ghosts of past
Woah, woah
