When I Was Young Songtext
von The Animals

The rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then
Times were very hard when I was young
When I was young

I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls I had a that yen
And I have quite a ball when I was young

When I was young, it was more important
Pain more painful, the laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young, when I was young


I met my first love at thirteen
She was brown and I was pretty green
I learned quite a lot when I was young
When I was young

When I was young it was more important
Pain more painful, laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
When I was young

My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow men
And I was so much older then
When I was young, when I was young

When I was young
When I was young
When I was young
