We took time to see the Sun Crossing rivers as we'd run Chasing birds down by the lake in the mud We would climb up in the trees Up high among the leaves We were wild and we were free when we were young
But now we're older And we feel the world at our feet As time turns we drift away Wish we were young again
We built castles in the sand Felt like emperors of the land Making walls to stop the waves from coming up We found joy in little things Like imaginary scenes Oh I miss the way we were when we were young
But now we're older And we feel the world at our feet As time turns we drift away And oh how time flies Then you realize forgotten dreams Got lost along the way Wish we were young again Wish we were young again
But there's still so much to see in this life in front of me Like pages of a book still unturned We could sail the seven seas Even raise a family We could dream just like we did when we were young
'Cause now we're older And we feel the world at our feet As time turns we drift away And oh how time flies Then you realise forgotten dreams Got lost along the way Wish we were young again Wish we were young again
