We Were Young (Reissue Bonus Track)

(앨범: Hours Were The Birds - 2014)

Wild and free, seventeen
You were only seventeen
And your mind was beating like a djembe drum
We were young, we were young
You were mine and we were young
And our love was burning
Life was but a dream

I got lost a few times
You knew everywhere I'd hide
You would look and call, and eventually I'd come
We were young, we were young
We got lost when we were young
But our hearts were always easy to unwind

Two years gone, you were gone
You were off to share your song
Out to heal the aching pieces of the Earth
And it hurt when you left
But I never told you how
'Cause I wanted you to go and travel on

Travel on, travel on
We were young and you were gone
Out to heal the aching pieces of the Earth

Oh, love, will you stay awake tonight
We can live tonight
In between this
Oh, phone, then, please be clear tonight
Let me hear tonight
Dear, I need this

Ten years flew, and you'd write
And I'd call you every night
And we'd close our eyes and meet there in our sleep
And you'd keep me alive
In your window so I'd know
After all those years that, still, my home is you

Oh, love, will you stay awake tonight
We can live tonight
In between this
Oh, phone, then, please be clear tonight
Let me hear tonight
Dear, I need the

Whole world to wake
The whole world to wait
