When We Were Young

You can find me anywhere you run
I'm part of the plan and we began to young
A passion rich with love and weak with hate
A marvelous ending not a drop too late

Well I remember all the sunny days where the clouds
hung high in flight
You could hear the crickets singin' lullabies
Sneakin' out at night

Tossing pebbles at my windowsill, you had your bike
layin' on its side
Hopin' and wishin that I'd hop on down
Go for a late night ride

There we could…
Walk just a little bit
Talk just a little bit
Play all the games that I know
Sing just a little bit
Dance to the rhythms playin' on my radio

I remember all the tree house days holdin' hands
waitin for the stars
Talkin' of a brilliant plan we'd fly away
We could build a home on mars

There we could…
Walk just a little bit
Talk just a little bit
Play all the games that I know
Sing just a little bit
Dance to the rhythms girl till we're grown and old

Then our time would run short
Would reach its line
And our lives would face their demise
And we'd leave our words and promises behind
Unwind and leave into the night
You'd drift away but we'd meet some day
On the other side
