young once - the smith street band lyrics

go for it

[verse 1]
i was so d-mn clever in my own little world
gone and made the perfect gesture for the perfect girl
but nothing ever really works out like that
on the day and the day after
the feeling of disaster i’ve truly got to know
in the months since i came home
came back, nothing ever really works out like that

[alt-chorus]
and we were young once
so was everyone
i guess something about it felt important

[verse 2]
if i could remember the name of everyone i’d kissed
does that mean they’d remember mine?
was there something in that momentary bliss?
such a beautiful waste of time
today we sat together like the family we had made
and it was real and it was something
and we ate off plastic plates and
we all work our dream jobs
and i’m not lacking in ambition
i am a building of a person
that’s scheduled for demolition

[chorus]
and we were young once
so was everyone
i guess something about it felt important
and we were happy once
so was everyone
i guess i never realised it was so important

[verse 3]
what if i was right for someone else?
and what if i never learn how to live with myself?
and what if when i leave you find someone that completes you?
will that change anything or will i turn back into a pattern i’m so used to?

[chrous/outro]
and we were young once
so was everyone
i guess something about it felt important
and we were happy once
so was everyone
i guess i never realised it was so important
and we were young once
we were young once
we were young once
again
again
again
again
we were happy once
again
again
