"As We Are Now" lyrics

We've all been waiting for this
But it always comes too quick
Spend our days in the playground
Pretending not to be kids

The girls are in the corner
Already had too much to drink
Boys hide behind their laughter
Like they don't care what girls think

We'll never be as young as we are now
The faces in the crowd are thinning out
And I'm not saying stick around
But stick around
And we may never have another like today
Tomorrow is a brand new start away
And we'll never be as young as we are now
As we are now

We've all been getting tired
Of the streets that we've outgrown
We sit indoors for hours
Now King George has lost his throne
But something out there's calling
A whisper we call home
The nights that I stayed with you
'Cause you didn't want to be alone

We will never be as young as we are now
The faces in the crowd are thinning out
And I'm not saying stick around
But stick around
And we may never have another like today
Tomorrow is a brand new start away
And we'll never be as young as we are now
As we are now

We will never be as young as we are now
The faces in the crowd are thinning out
And I'm not saying stick around
But stick around
And we may never have another like today
Tomorrow is a brand new start away
And we'll never be as young as we are now
As we are now

And we'll never be as young as we are now
And we'll never be as young as we are now, now
And we'll never be as young as we are now
And we'll never be as young as we are now, now
