When You Were Young

Lyrics

You sit there in your heartache
 Waiting on some beautiful boy to
 To save you from your old ways
 You play forgiveness
 Watch it now
 Here he comes
 He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
 But he talks like a gentlemen
 Like you imagined
 When you were young
 ♪
 Can we climb this mountain?
 I don't know
 Higher now than ever before
 I know we can make it if we take it slow
 Let's take it easy
 Easy now
 Watch it go
 We're burning down the highway skyline
 On the back of a hurricane that started turning
 When you were young
 
 When you were young
 
 And sometimes you close your eyes
 And see the place where you used to live
 When you were young
 ♪
 They say the devil's water
 It ain't so sweet
 You don't have to drink right now
 But you can dip your feet
 Every once in a little while
 ♪
 You sit there in your heartache
 Waiting on some beautiful boy to
 To save you from your old ways
 You play forgiveness
 Watch it now
 Here he comes
 He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
 But he talks like a gentlemen
 Like you imagined
 When you were young
 Talks like a gentleman
 Like you imagined
 When you were young
 I said, he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
 
 He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
 But more than you'll ever know
 
 You sit there in your heartache
 Waiting on some beautiful boy to
 To save you from your old ways
 You play forgiveness
 Watch it now
 Here he comes
 He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
 But he talks like a gentlemen
 Like you imagined
 When you were young
