We Were Young

[Verse 1]

Where did you come from?

Crash back into my world, it's been so long

We're here again in the moonlight

That night I'll never forget the way you moved

The way you left the room, so sad

Like nothing ever turned out like you thought it would

[Chorus]

Oh, we were young

And I'm still in love, I'm still a fool for you

Oh, I caught your eye

Tell me you didn't try to compare me

To the girl in your mind

[Verse 2]

You walk toward me

My legs are frozen to the ground

I couldn't make a sound if I wanted to

But you, fearless as ever

Always one to please the crowd

You flash a smile at me, so sad

Like nothing ever turned out like you thought it should

[Chorus]

Oh, we were young

And I'm still in love, I'm still a fool for you

Oh, I caught your eye

Tell me you didn't try to compare me

To the girl in your mind

[Verse 3]

What's the difference?

You never called, you never wrote

I left it alone, but something's different

Something's exactly the same - the way your lips move

When you say my name, so sad

Like nothing was as perfect as you wanted it to be

[Alternate Chorus]

We were free

And I'm still waiting to see

If you'll come back around tonight

I caught your eye

Tell me you didn't try to compare me

To the girl in your mind

[Outro]

The girl you'll never find

The one you'll never find

Never as perfect as you wanted it to be
