[Chorus]
We were young
We were young
We were young
Life seemed so long

[Chorus]
We were young
We were young
We were young
Life seemed so long

[Verse 1]
We were young, we had no sorrows at all
We were young, we were not afraid to fall
We were young when the meadows stretched for years
We were young and ambitions were sincere

[Chorus]
We were young
We were young
We were young
Life seemed so long

[Chorus]
We were young
We were young
We were young
Life seemed so long
[Verse 2]
We were young with a story to be told
We were young, standing strong at the threshold
Tomorrow turned from hope into a fear
But honest aims will always persevere

[Chorus]
We were young
We were young
We were young
Life seemed so long

[Chorus]
We were young
We were young
We were young
Life seemed so long

[Verse 3]
We were young, endless sun lighting the way, oh-oh (Oh yeah)
We were young but the skyline had to change (Oh, oh-oh)
A better life, the foundations are in place
A future dream that forever resonates

[Interlude]
We were young
We were young (Oh-yeah, oh-oh)
(Oh-yeah-oh-yeah-oh, yeah)
[Chorus]
We were young (Yeah)
We were young (Yeahhhh-oh)
We were young
Life seemed so long (Yeahhhhhhhh)

[Chorus]
We were young
We were young (Oh-oh)
We were young
Life seemed so long (Yeahhhh-oh)
