When We Were Young

Take That - When We Were Young

When we were young the world seemed so old

Careless and cold

We did what we were told in our lives

When we were young

Had the world by the tail, good would prevail,

Starships would 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

Wooaaah when we were young

When we adored the fabulous

Wooaaah when we were young

We were the foolish fearless

Never knowing the cost of what we paid

Letting someone else be strong

Wooaaah when we were young

In a moment of grace

A long leap of faith

There's still more glorious dawn awaits my life

I'm here with the lovers

Then we burned the bridges we're crossing over

Just to see the firelight

And the innocent are getting over being old tonight

Wooaaah when we were young

When everything was what it seemed

Wooaaah when we were young

And everyday was how we dreamed

Never knowing the cost of what we paid

Letting someone else be strong

Wooaaah when we were young

And when you look at yourself tonight

Are you someone you recognise?

You can take back what you've given away

But it must be the last time

Wooaaah when we were young

Wooaaah when we were young

When we were young

Wooaaah when we were young

When we adored the fabulous

Wooaaah when we were young

We were the foolish fearless

Wooaaah when we were young

We didn't know it wouldn't last

Wooaaah when we were young
