Well there´s a colour picture
In my mind
Of all the places
That I´ve left behind
The broken windows
Where the wind blows through
Empty shells of houses
That have turned to ruin
Oh, we were so young
We didn´t realize
Just what we´d done
Oh, we were too young
And I remember you
You were the back yard boy
Hiding in the wreckage
Of broken dreams
Standing by the railway line
Standing
Oh, we were so young
We didn´t realize
Just what we´d done
Oh, we were too young
And all the sweetness
Has been taken out of this place
So many memories
Are knocked down or replaced
And I can´t stand to see
The shifting time
Taking me further
Leaving you behind
