Andy Black and Juliet Simms - When We Were Young

Everybody loves the things you do
From the way you talk to the way you move
Cause everybody here is watching you
Cause you feel like home
You're like a dream come true
But if by chance you're here alone
Can I have a moment before I go?
Cause I've been by myself all night long
Hoping you're someone I used to know

You look like a movie you sound like a song
My God, this reminds me
Of when we were young

Let me photograph you in this light
In case it is the last time that we might
Be exactly like we were before we realised
We were sad of getting old
It made us restless it was just like a movie
It was just like a song

I was so scared to face my fears
Nobody told me that you'd be here
And I swear you'd moved overseas
That's what you said when you left me

You still look like a movie
You still sound like a song
My God, this reminds me
Of when we were young

Let me photograph you in this light
In case it is the last time that we might
Be exactly like we were before we realised
We were sad of getting old
It made us restless it was just like a movie
It was just like a song (When we were young)
(When we were young, When we were young)
(When we were young)

It's hard to admit that everything
Just takes me back to when you were there
To when you were there
And a part of me keeps holding on
Just in case it hasn't gone
I guess I still care, do you still care?

It was just like a movie
It was just like a song
My God, this reminds me
Of when we were young

(When we were young, When we were young)
(When we were young, When we were young)

Let me photograph you in this light
In case it is the last time that we might
Be exactly like we were before we realised
We were sad of getting old
It made us restless
Oh, I'm so mad I'm getting old
It makes me reckless
It was just like a movie
It was just like a song when we were young
