When We Were Young
Shyla Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Remember when, those better days, were only filled with laughter
So don't give up, don't blow the light out now, we'll find a way somehow

For what it's worth, I'll always scream your name, step back, do it again
Upon the stars, our names are, traced in glory when, everything else falls

[Thy kingdom come, thy kingdom cherish]
Don't let me go

[For in the night, thou woes shall perish]

Remember when, those better days, were only filled with laughter
So don't give up, don't blow the light out now, we'll find a way somehow

So is it true, can we be, everylasting, or just everlonging

[Thy kingdom come, thy kingdom cherish]
Don't let me go
[For in the night, thou woes shall perish]

Remember when, those better days, were only filled with laughter
So don't give up, don't blow the light out now, we'll find a way somehow

We'll be fine without you

Do you remember, the days when we were young
Do you remember, the days when we were young
