9. Europa Plus | Hardwell feat. Chris Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I dreamed of a place in the sky
Playing in the fields
Battling with my shields
Bows made out of twine
I wish I could see this world again
Through those eyes
See the child in me
Never growing old
Will we ever feel young again
Will we ever feel young again
Will we ever feel young again
We want to feel young
We want to feel young again
When I was a boy
I searched for a world that's unknown
All we have is fun
Everybody runs
Until the sun goes down
I wish I could see this world again
Through those eyes
See the child in me
In my fantasy
Never growing old
Will we ever feel young again
Will we ever feel young again
Will we ever feel young again
We want to feel young
We want to feel young again
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
Woah oh oh oh

The song also speaks to the universal desire to recapture the carefree and youthful spirit, even as one ages. The chorus repeats the titular line "Will we ever feel young again, we want to feel young again" as a mantra, expressing the hope and yearning to relive those golden moments.
The verses describe the personal experiences of the writer and how they have changed. As a child, they dreamed of reaching the skies and exploring new worlds. However, with age, they realize that the world they once knew is different from the reality they face currently. The lyricist longs for the excitement and wonder of their youth, where anything is possible and every moment is an adventure. It's an anthem for anyone who longs for a return to a simpler time, where life was more straightforward, and every day was filled with promise and hope.
