Heartless Bastards
When I Was Younger
[Verse 1]
Oh, when I was younger, I danced out in the open
I spun around 'til I fell down and I was nearly broken
Now, my heart, it sings to mend the strings my spirit has awoken
And I was out sleepwalking, I was dazed all in emotion

[Pre-Chorus]
And now, the light is so bright I could see
For miles through the distant trees
Oh, feeling so free
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
A-ooh
Ooh

[Verse 2]
Oh, all these little things they pulled at my heart
And I'm gonna make a new start, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
And, oh, I surrender, you see
Oh, oh
Oh, to whatever my future may be
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
A-ooh
A-ooh

[Outro]
I needed to calm down 'cause I had found
That I used to be so complicated, you see, oh
I'm spreading the news that I ain't got the blues, oh
So far I could see, oh, for miles through thе trees, oh
I changed my view to a differеnt hue
And now I can see clearly again
