When We Were Young (for Teresa) Lyrics

When we were young

We used to walk in the moonlight

Run through the sun

When we were young

We used to look at the stars

And dream about the days to come

When we were young

Life was full of oceans and sandy beaches

And the sky was so blue

That the clouds just turned away

When we were young

Oh how I'd hold you, dear

All through the night

And then we would smile

As the sun came streaming through the window

Yes, when we were young

We used to play the game of love

And it was good

It was real

It was you and me

When we were young

I used to bring you roses, and sing you love songs

And we'd walk together, holding hands forever

With love shining in our eyes

When we were young

We used to laugh together and cry together

And we knew that our dream of love

Would one day be reality

When we were young

Oh how I'd hold you, dear

All through the night

And then we would smile

As the sun came streaming through the window

Yes, when we were young

We used to play the game of love

And it was good

It was real

And if you go away

If ever you can't stay

If you ever turn and softly close the door

I'd be standing here on my own

With nothing in my arms to hold

And praying please, almighty God

To bring back yesterday

When we were young

When we were young…
