Lyrics of When i was young

Rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then
And times were very hard
When i was young, when i was young

I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls i had a that yen
And i had quite a ball
When i was young

When i was young it was more important
Pain more painful and laughter not louder, yeah
When i was young
When i was young

I met my first love at thirteen
She was brown and i was pretty green
And i learned quite a lot
When i was young, when i was young

When i was young it was more important
Pain more painful and laughter not louder, yeah
When i was young
When i was young

My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow men
And i was so much older then
When i was young, when i was young

When i was young
When i was young
When i was young
When i was young
When i was young
