When I Was Young

When I was young at night I'd call your name

When I was young I fell in love every other day

When I was young, lord when I was young



All of what I've done and all I've seen

Place it brought me to, the place I thought I'd be

When I was young, lord when I was young



Now in the lonesome of the night I wake, no names do I call

And in the lonesome of the night I drink, to all the loves I've lost

Oh the days I let slip away

I was fierce and wild in love when I was young



Working never did agree with me

Maybe I never stuck around long enough to see

When I was young, lord when I was young

When I was young, lord when I was young



Now in the lonesome of the night I wake, no names do I call

And in the lonesome of the night I drink, to all the loves I've lost

Oh the days I let slip away

I was fierce and wild in love when I was young



All those long gone nights with you next to me

I let those years slip by so easily

They went so easily



I spent all my days trying to be

Something you can't hold, something close to free

But I ain't young, lord knows that I'm not young



Oh the days I let slip away

I was fierce and wild in love when I was young

Oh the days, all the mistakes that I made

I was fierce and wild in love when I was young
