When You’re Young Songtext
von 3 Doors Down

So far away from knowin′ where I'm goin′
And tryin' hard to find out who I am
They all say that I don't know what I′m doin′
I say they don't hardly understand

Why can′t they remember what I'll never forget?
How these dreams can come undone when you′re young

You give what you give 'cause they make you
Trapped inside a place that won′t take you
They want you to be what they make you
It's already over and done
When you're young

Everything seems perfect (everything seems perfect)
And everything′s okay (everything′s okay)
And it will all get better now (it will all get better now)
At least that's what they say

But I don′t see it comin'


You give what you give ′cause they make you
Trapped inside a place that won't take you
They want you to be what they make you
It′s already over and done
When you're young

The days never seem longer
They say it's better this way
I hope one day I am stronger than I feel
And I hope that it feels different than today

You give what you give ′cause they make you
Trapped inside a place that won′t take you
They want you to be what they make you
It's already over and done
It′s already over and done
It's already over and done
When you′re young

Why can't they remember what I will never forget?
How these dreams can come undone when you′re young
