When We Were Young Lyrics by Ant Utama

Brave

2020

[Verse 1]
Looking back
To the pictures of past
Playing out in the sun
Oh we were freckled and young
Feeling free
We were green as the grass
High school was a TV show
And we were the cast
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Play fights out on the field
Taking turns to tease each other
That’s how we would show affection
In the days when we were so naive
[Chorus]
It takes me back to the days when we were young
Our memories all spilling out
We were innocent and dumb
But ignorance was bliss and we were proud, but now
Some have families some still finding themselves
One sits in the same bar sharing stories of ours
It takes me back to the days when we were young
And reminds me my roots are planted firmly in the ground
[Verse 2]
I’m in Cologne
Thinking damn life is fast
Scrolling through my phone
Wondering how 10 years have past
But I know
There’s a piece of my soul
Waiting for me at home
'Cause boys, that’s just how we roll
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And time is unstoppable
People grow up
Some marry, some sail the world
But something happens when we all catch up
[Chorus]
It takes me back to the days when we were young
Our memories all spilling out
We were innocent and dumb
But ignorance was bliss and we were proud, but now
Some have families some still finding themselves
One sits in the same bar sharing stories of ours
It takes me back to the days when we were young
And reminds me my roots are planted firmly in the ground
[Chorus]
It takes me back to the days when we were young
Our memories all spilling out
We were innocent and dumb
But ignorance was bliss and we were proud, but now
Some have families some still finding themselves
One sits in the same bar sharing stories of ours
It takes me back to the days when we were young
And reminds me my roots are planted firmly in the ground
