When I Was Young

When the sky was gold
 And I needed no protection
 But as the wind would blow
 A thousand miles in no direction
 Man, it was a beautiful sight
 Days were soaked in sunlight
 Just so long ago
 But lately I like to imagine
 When I was young
 Whatever happened it would do me no wrong
 As long as I could sing my favorite song
 When I was young, oh
 And the holidays went on and on
 We were so high
 Let the freeway take us into the night
 And in the dark you sang my favorite song
 When I was young, oh
 And the holidays went on and on
 And on, and on, and on
 When I was young
 (Woo!)
 ♪
 Now the sky is gray
 But honestly, it doesn't hurt me (no)
 I learned to find my way
 On the path of no returnin', oh, oh
 Everything I've left behind
 I'm reminded every time I meet your eyes
 But, were were so bold and brave
 Baby, can you imagine?
 When I was young
 Whatever happened it would do me no wrong
 As long as I could sing my favorite song
 When I was young, oh
 And the holidays went on and on
 We were so high
 Let the freeway take us into the night
 And in the dark you sang my favorite song
 When I was young, oh
 And the holidays went on and on
 And on, and on, and on
 When I was young
 (Woo!)
 ♪
 When I was young
 We would play with fire
 When I was young
 And we would fuck the price
 When I was young
 It was do or die
 I would give my life just to feel like
 When I was young
 Ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 ♪
 (Oh, do or die)
 When I was young
 Do me no wrong
 We were so high
 Oh, and the holidays went on and on
 And on, and on, and on
 When I was young
