Once when we were young
Didn't care at all
Wish I could go back
Back when we were young

Yesterday
Another moment we let slip away, slip away
I'm here to stay
Call me a dreamer
But I'm wide awake, wide awake
The only way to know where we're headed
Is to never second guess or regret it
How far we've come

Once when we were young
Didn't care at all
Staring at the sun
Like a crystal ball
Now we're on the run
From what we become
Wish I could go back
Back when we were young

Back when we were young

Tell me please
Is it a choice or only destiny, destiny
It's clear to me
We are the rulers of reality, and I believe
The only way to know where we're headed
Is to never second guess or regret it
How far we've come

Once when we were young
Didn't care at all
Staring at the sun
Like a crystal ball
Now we're on the run
From what we become
Wish I could go back
Back when we were young

Back when we were young

How far we've come, keep holding strong
We can't go wrong
If we never ever let go
There so much more left to explore
We can't go wrong
If we never let it get old

Once when we were young
Didn't care at all
Staring at the sun
Like a crystal ball
Now we're on the run
From what we become
Wish I could go back
Back when we were young
Back when we were young
Back when we were young
