When we were younger lyrics

When I was younger I always thought

I could be someone if i tried enough

When I was younger my father said

Wear a smile and show respect

When I was younger you never said

When I was older I'd feel helpless

When I was younger you shone the light

Now that I'm older it doesn't shine bright

When I was younger you always said

That as I got older you'd always be there

I'm singing

I'm singing

I'm singing

I'm singing

When I was younger I used to care

About everything that my father said

When I was younger you even told me

To show evil the upmost respect

When I was younger I never thought

That when I was older I'd see you give up

Now that I'm older I'll carry the torch

Just promise you'll stand and you'll be strong

I'm singing

I'm singing

I'm singing

I'm singing

I'm singing

I'm singing

I'm singing

I'm singing

When I was younger I never thought

When I was younger I never thought

That when I was older I'd fight your wars

That when I was older I'd fight your wars

I'll do it for you

I'll do it for you

I'll do it for you

I'll do it for

When I was younger I only dreamed

That when I got older, you'd be proud of me

When I was younger I promised you both

That when I was older, you'd be proud of me
