In photographs I look so old
And the faces around me
Tell different stories
They want different things
Than they did at seventeen
Stuck between the longing
Early evenings, late night dreams
Desperately searching to feel something
There's no problems when you're young
I need what you've got to give
So give it in spades
You're a shining light when the world's a palette of grey
I need what you've got to give
So give it in spades
You're a shining light and I've always felt that way
The slow, loud creak over hardwood floor
We'd argue about who loves each other more
And how we'd never be afraid
To know about where this goes
To feel about where this leads
Give me a reason to feel something
There's no problems when you're young
And I can taste tomorrow on my tongue
I need what you've got to give
So give it in spades
You're a shining light when the world's a palette of grey
I need what you've got to give
So give it in spades
You're a shining light and I've always felt that way
Shine on me, I need what you've got to give me
