"When We Were Younger" lyrics

I can recall sitting alone
The last one left to leave
So you had asked me if
You could walk me home and
I can still hear
That school bell ring
And no one else could tell my frown
Was hidden by a grin

All those memories we shared
All the streets we used to roam
Are the pigments that you painted
Now my world's not monochrome

Back when we were younger
And our dreams were unexplored
We just needed each other
Couldn't ever ask for more
Oh, nobody had flaws
And nothing had a cause
When we were younger, hmm

Yes I recall
What started it all
Our endless conversation about
Future occupation and we
We couldn't be seen
Got so lost in our dreams
Asking where did the time go
It used to move so slow
(Wait just a minute would you slow down please)

But those memories we shared
All the streets we used to roam
Are the pigments that you painted
Now my world's not monochrome

Back when we were younger
And our dreams were unexplored
We just needed each other
Couldn't ever ask for more
Oh, nobody had flaws
And nothing had a cause
When we were younger, hmm

Back when we were younger
And our dreams were unexplored
We just needed each other
Couldn't ever ask for more
Oh, nobody had flaws
And nothing had a cause
When we were younger, hmm

When we were younger
When we were young
We always wished we could grow faster
When we were younger
I wish I took my time
When we were young
Look at where we are now
Oh how the time flies by

When we were young
Back when we were younger
When we were young
