[Verse]

When I was young the world was wide

We’d chase the stars and never hide

Barefoot dreams on gravel roads

Hearts unchained where freedom flowed

[Verse 2]

We built our castles out of sand

A kingdom small but oh so grand

The sunsets burned like wildfire skies

We swore we’d never say goodbyes

[Chorus]

Oh when I was young and life was gold

A story fresh and yet untold

Every corner held a song

The days were short but nights so long

[Verse 3]

We danced in fields of emerald green

No map no guide just endless scenes

The moon would wink the wind would hum

A symphony where we’d belong

[Bridge]

But time’s a thief it takes its toll

It carves a path it claims your soul

Yet in my mind those days still sing

A melody that time can’t bring

[Chorus]

Oh when I was young and life was gold

A story fresh and yet untold

Every corner held a song

The days were short but nights so long

The days were short but nights so long
