a close up of a white marble surface

Out on the street
In the cold rain
The last blank faces board the train
Just the shadows remain

And when the lightening strikes
I think I see the likes of you babe
Or maybe I’ve just
Finally gone insane

We were young and knew the score
Didn’t know what love was for
Wasting tears and laughter while we
Told ourselves there’d always be more

Words of love remembered
I’ve learned to read between the lines
The years have been kind to you
Since I called you mine . . .

(Chorus)

Taken back to younger days
‘Cause this is where the fires blaze
The burning questions
Of a young man’s soul

Do we throw away
The memory of yesterday?
Or do we … just keep living younger days?

Forced now to be
Alone, but not free
The past it seems to be your strength
Wish for things that can’t be

Those days out on the bay
Didn’t you try to say you loved me?
But somehow we knew … it would not be

Taken back to younger days
The more you hurt, the less that it pays
Don’t you see what we thought was love
Was just a foolish head game

Those words of love remembered
I’ve learned to read between the lines
Now why don’t you see
I’ve left you behind

Younger Days
