I Was Young (feat. Andrew Way & Daniel Youngelman)

I was breathing, I was drinking a different air
I was thinking you’d have found your answer by now
I was clinging on and cleaving to long-lost bearings
I kept wearing
You stopped caring
Yeah, I was young and I was looking for something else
I was breathing, I was dreaming brighter, baby
Yeah, I was young and I was hoping I’d find myself
In the mirrors, there
In your light
In the mirrors, there
Of your eyes
Keep me close, but keep me distant, I’ll keep my mark
I’ll be watching, waiting from the sidelines, baby
Keep me silent, keep me whispering from the darkness:
“Break this promise,
We don’t want this”
No, I was young and I was looking for something else
I was breathing, I was dreaming brighter, baby
Yeah, I was young and I was hoping I’d find myself
In the mirrors, there
In your light
In the mirrors, there
Of your eyes
Take me in the car on the day that you left
You had run away, didn’t want my shoulder
Lightning in the dark of a world we’ll forget
We had words of love, never to get over
Bring me to the dreams, gently getting colder
Bigger than they seemed, now we’re getting older
Take me to you arms, lead to me to believe
Take me to your heart, bring me to my knees
Yeah, I was young and I was looking for something else
I was breathing, I was dreaming brighter, baby
Yeah, I was young and I was hoping I’d find myself
In the mirrors, there
In your light
In the mirrors, there
Of your eyes
Nothing’s simple, nothing’s permanent, nothing’s strong
Take me on and take me to your silence, now
