Lyrics: Lucy Schwartz. When We Were Young.

When We Were Young

When we were young

We were small but we didna??t know it

When you were hurt

You would smile so you didna??t show it

And I cana??t believe youa??re mine

Cana??t believe youa??re mine

When we were young

We were brave, we were wild warriors

And you liked to race

So wea??d run to the distant shores

And I cana??t believe youa??re mine

Cana??t believe youa??re mine

When the night came we would both say goodbye and go


But now that Ia??m older Ia??m sleepless outside your door

So let me in

I cana??t believe youa??re mine

Now we are tall

We are wise

We are tired or growing

All of this time

You and I

How did we not know it

And I cana??t believe youa??re mine

Cana??t believe youa??re mine

Cana??t believe youa??re mine
