about
The debut single from The Last Arcade. When We Were Young will have you reminiscing of bygone days, endless summers and those friends who you maybe lost touch with but were everything to you when you were young.
lyrics
We were kids - just dreamers and losers,
We kicked around with scraped knees and bruises,
Guess you just don’t know what you’ve got when you’re young.
Days of sun when no one would miss you
We shouted loud but no one was listening
You just don't know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone.
But I had you and you had me
It seemed like that was all a boy could ever need
When the lights go out and the day is done
I think of all the dreams we had when we were young
When the night is long then the morning comes
Sometimes I wish we could go back to when we were young
We made a pact - we’re brother’s forever
Whoever comes we’d face them together
They said that no one could tear us apart
I met a girl it lasted the summer
You met a girl and told her you loved her
And then slowly we drifted apart
And she had you and I had me
I guess that’s just the way that life was meant to be
When the lights go out and the day is done
I think of all the dreams we had when we were young
When the night is long then the morning comes
Sometimes I wish we could go back to when we were young
Looking back how I wish I could see you again
Take me back, take me back my friend
When we were young when we were kids life was so simple then
Take me back, take me back my friend
Looking back how I wish I could see you again
Take me back, take me back my friend
When we were young when we were kids life was so simple then
Take me back, take me back there again
When the lights go out and the day is done
I think of all the dreams we had when we were young
When the night is long then the morning comes
Sometimes I wish we could go back to when we were young
If I don't see you again then I
I hope you’re good my friend
I hope life treats you well and
You made it in the end
If I don't see you again then I
I hope you’re good my friend
I hope life treats you well and
You made it in the end
