Strawbs - You And I (When We Were Young) lyrics
rate meI sometimes sit and think about<br />
Our evenings in the firelight<br />
You and I<br />
When we were young<br />
Laughing at the crazy-patterned shadows<br />
That were dancing on the wall<br />
Without a care<br />
With time to spend<br />
Hardly speaking<br />
For hours on end<br />
That was you and I<br />
When we were young.<br />
<br />
Walking hand in hand beside the river<br />
At the weekends<br />
You and I<br />
When we were young<br />
Children with their fishing nets were laughing<br />
As they took their catches home<br />
Caterpillars in paper bags<br />
Knees tied up with dirty rags<br />
That was you and I<br />
When we were young.<br />
<br />
Brushing through the fallen leaves<br />
Together in the autumn<br />
You and I<br />
When we were young<br />
Planning for the future<br />
Without knowing what it held for us at all<br />
The road to nowhere never climbs<br />
We changed direction a dozen times<br />
That was you and I<br />
When we were young.
