When We Were Young

When We Were Young - Flawes Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was right on the money

All this glitter and gold

It just keeps everyone worth looking for

So stop if you're honest, ready or not

You tick all the boxes



[Pre-Chorus]

But wish you were something you are not

I'm searching something you are not



[Chorus]

I wasn't dreaming of these worn out places

When we were young, when we were young

I wish I knew what we'd become when we were young

I wasn't dreaming of these worn out places

When we were young, when we were young

I wish I knew what we'd become when we were young



[Verse 2]

You do what you want and I'll do what I please Don't stop doing you and I'll keep being me

Take it or leave it, go take over, go

And I wish I was better



[Pre-Chorus]

And I'm wishing you're something you are not

I'm searching something you are not



[Chorus]

I wasn't dreaming of these worn out places

When we were young, when we were young

I wish I knew what we'd become when we were young

I wasn't dreaming of these worn out places

When we were young, when we were young

I wish I knew what we'd become when we were young



[Bridge]

Take me away

Ooh-ooh, oh

From the ordinary

Take me away



[Chorus]

I wasn't dreaming of these worn out places

When we were young, when we were young

I wish I knew what we'd become when we were young

I wasn't dreaming of these worn out places

When we were young, when we were young

I wish I knew what we'd become when we were young
