When We Were Young - Take That

When we were young

the world seemed so old

Careless and cold

We did what we were told in our lifes

When we were young

Had the world by the tail

Good would prevail

Starships at sail

And none of us would fail in this life

Not when you’re young

We were drawn to whoever

could keep us together

And bound by the heavens above

And we tried to survive travelling at the speed of love

(Wo oh oh)

When we were young

When we adored the fabulous

(Wo oh oh)

When we were young

We were the foolish fearless

Never knowing the cost of what we paid letting someone else be strong

(Who oh oh)

When we were young

In a moment of grace

A long leap of faith

The still more glorious dawn awaits

It’s my life…

I’m here with the lovers

And we burned the bridges

We’re crossing over

Just to see the firelight

And the innocent are getting over

Being old… tonight

(Who oh oh)

When we were young

When everything was what it seemed

(Who oh oh)

When we were young

And every day was how we dreamed

Never knowing the cost of what we paid letting someone else be strong

(Who oh oh)

When we were young

And when you look at yourself tonight

Are you someone you recognize?

You can take back what you’ve given away

but it must be the last time

(Who oh oh)

When we were young

(Who oh oh)

When we were young

When we were young

(Wo oh oh)

When we were young

When we adored the fabulous

(Wo oh oh)

When we were young

We were the foolish fearless

(Who oh oh)

When we were young

We didn’t know it wouldn’t last

(Who oh oh)

When we were young
