When You Were Young Songtext
von A Silent Film

You sit the in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
Save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now
Here he comes
He doesn′t look a thing like Jesus
But he, talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you
Were young


Can we climb this mountain?
I don't know
Higher now than ever before, I
Now, we can make it if we take it slow
Let′s take it easy
Easy now
Watch it go
We're burning down the highway skyline
Back on the hurricane
That started turning when you
Were young
When you
Were young

And sometimes you close your eyes and see the place where you used to live
When you
Were young

See, the devil's water it ain′t so sweet
But you don′t have to drink right now
But you can dip your feet
Every once in a little while


You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
Save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now
Here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you
Were young
Just like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you
Were young
He doesn′t look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
And more than you′ll ever know
