Oh when we were seventeen |
|
Oh life was like a film |
|
When we were seventeen |
|
The sky was always tangerine |
|
We ran through streets at night |
|
Under starlight |
|
We ran through streets at night |
|
When we were winning |
|
Oh wild was the world |
|
And wild we burned |
|
We were kings of the streets |
|
Not yet beaten by defeat |
|
But now it's hard to see |
|
Through a fog of memories |
|
But I remember |
|
When we were winning |
|
Now my friends are unemployed |
|
Not needed in this world |
|
Pushed down by this town |
|
And always turned down |
|
But in dreams at night |
|
They can sometimes recall |
|
When we were heroes |
|
When we were winning |
|
What have we done to our lives? |
|
We could've been anything |
|
We gave it our love for what? |
|
This is the time |
|
Oh it's in the air at night |
|
There is a wind coming in |
|
The days dying |
|
Oh it's so beautiful |
|
There's something happening somewhere |
|
I take the bus into town |
|
All I see is laughing |
|
And we are winning |
|
Soon I grow older |
|
But God knows |
|
I haven't lived yet |
|
Before tonight's a memory |
|
Let's go out |
|
I am still young |
|
ahhhhh aaaaahh aaaaaah aaaaaaah |
|
aaaaahhh aaaaah aaaaaaaaaah |
