Back to Life Lyrics by Volcanoes

When We Were Young

0

[Intro]
(Holding on to the way that is was)
[Verse One]
Lying here awake at night
Trying not to say it’s perfect
Heads are turning every time I’ve been here
It’s always too good to be true
[Chorus]
There’s no recovering
But I can walk away
Keep it buried down and deeper now
But I can’t forget
Secrets were meant to be kept
Better than keeping you dressed
Keep it buried down and deeper now
I hope it was worth it
(I hope it was worth it)
[Verse Two]
Finding out your memories
I needed you to be the one and only part of me
That wouldn’t hurt
Couldn’t hurt, oh
Chasing a silhouette
Your words were wrapped around my neck
And the water kicked the chair out
And let it fall to the ground
[Chorus]
There’s no recovering
But I can walk away
Keep it buried down and deeper now
But I can’t forget
Secrets were meant to be kept
Better than keeping you dressed
Keep it buried down and deeper now
I hope it was worth it
[Bridge]
Talk to me and tell me how to let it fade away
Look at how we dance around the choices you’ve made
Talk to me and tell me how to let it fade away
Look at how we dance around the hearts that we break
[Chorus]
There’s no recovering
But I can walk away
Keep it buried down and deeper now
But I can’t forget
Secrets were meant to be kept
Better than keeping you dressed
Keep it buried down and deeper now
I hope it was worth it
[Outro]
Talk to me and tell me how to let it fade away
Look at how we dance around the hearts that we break
