When We Were Young Lyrics

I made it with a big arsed girl in my first car

Fumbled for the finish line as a movie played

Well that screen's gone it's now an apartment block

I think I cried when I heard it went that way

When we were young, before the rattlesnakes

When we were young, before the give and takes

When we were young, before barricades and walls

When we were young, we knew nothing much at all

There was only time and chance and chance again

And photos told the tales of our fashion crimes

Friends moved on and on to the disconnect

We all tried to stay in touch for a while

When we were young, before the rattlesnakes

When we were young, before the give and takes

When we were young, before barricades and walls

When we were young, we knew nothing much at all

Once upon a time I knew it all, before I learnt so much

Then there was the time I thought, all you need is luck

But no-one cares, no-one cares

That we were young

When we were young, before the rattlesnakes

When we were young, before the give and takes

When we were young, before barricades and walls

When we were young, we knew nothing much at all

Nothing much at all

Nothing much at all

Nothing much at all
