When You Were Young Lyrics
[00:18.94] You sit there in your heartache
[00:22.79] Waiting on some beautiful boy to
[00:26.23] To save you from your old ways
[00:29.88] You play forgiveness
[00:31.51] Watch it now
[00:32.36] Here he comes
[00:33.35] He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
[00:36.56] But he talks like a gentlemen
[00:39.12] Like you imagined
[00:40.55] When you were young
[00:44.99]
[00:48.03] Can we climb this mountain?
[00:50.12] I don't know
[00:51.74] Higher now than ever before
[00:55.20] I know we can make it if we take it slow
[00:59.10] Let's take it easy
[01:00.61] Easy now
[01:01.62] Watch it go
[01:02.63] We're burning down the highway skyline
[01:06.79] On the back of a hurricane that started turning
[01:09.48] When you were young
[01:16.77] When you were young
[01:21.99]
[01:24.15] And sometimes you close your eyes
[01:27.20] And see the place where you used to live
[01:31.63] When you were young
[01:34.44] They say the devil's water
[01:57.76] It ain't so sweet
[01:59.89] You don't have to drink right now
[02:04.68] But you can dip your feet
[02:08.41] Every once in a little while
[02:14.76]
[02:34.39] You sit there in your heartache
[02:38.26] Waiting on some beautiful boy to
[02:41.54] To save you from your old ways
[02:45.49] You play forgiveness
[02:46.99] Watch it now
[02:47.93] Here he comes
[02:48.80] He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
[02:52.26] But he talks like a gentlemen
[02:54.79] Like you imagined
[02:55.97] When you were young
[03:00.09] Talks like a gentleman
[03:01.94] Like you imagined
[03:03.20] When you were young
[03:10.21] I said, he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
[03:15.82]
[03:17.99] He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
[03:24.31] But more than you'll ever know
[03:26.84]
[00:22.79] Waiting on some beautiful boy to
[00:26.23] To save you from your old ways
[00:29.88] You play forgiveness
[00:31.51] Watch it now
[00:32.36] Here he comes
[00:33.35] He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
[00:36.56] But he talks like a gentlemen
