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
