Within Our Younger Years Lyrics

I can no longer

Hear the echoes

Of our laughter

Within those fields,where

I grew up

Still the sun cannot

Warm this face,as it did

How it felt

When I was so,very young

The ghosts of bad decisions

Have come for me

Have returned for me

To take me now

What I would not give

To hear the laughter again

Run through those fields

Feel the suns warmth across this face

I was eighteen,no ambitions

Absolutely no direction

Skipping school

Just living life

One will never think

In their younger years

That's the final moments

With the best friends

You will ever have

Now the ghosts of bad decisions

Have come for me

Have found, found

Where I've been hiding

What I would not give

To have those friends again

Relive that past

Maybe get,get a second chance

Had I known that

Those last words

That last sentence

Would have ended

With,I love you

Had I know that

Those were our last days

Our last moments

I would have told my dad,how I felt

Now,the ghosts of bad decisions

Are my afflictions

For these reflections

In this life

What I would not give

To see him standing there

With open arms

Saying son,how have you been

What I would not give

For one more sunset

One more heart to heart

For one more laugh with

One more yesterday

What I would not give

For one last spoken word

One more moment in time

One more final

Final goodbye

Final goodbye
