When We Were Young Songtext
von Duncan Reid and the Big Heads

When we were younger we′d party the whole day through
Looking back now
Laughing and joking we were happy just us two
Times gone by
Drinking was fun such a blast and so brand new
Long ago now
The world was our oyster we owned it all me and you


You used to be a better man than this
Laughing all the time
Used to be much better with the drink
Gotta get over it
Used to be a better man than this
Happy all the time

Then we got older the world took on different hues
Looking back now
Darker days spent at home often just you and the booze
The clock kept ticking
You felt the world owed you but Lady Luck spoiled your view
Life meant nothing
Long days spent on your own looking for long lost clues


You used to be a better man than this
Laughing all the time
Used to be much better with the kids
Gotta get over it
Used to be a better man than this
Happy all the time
