When we were young, and the world was wide
Free as the wind that eased our stride
I didn't realise that I'd left you alone
Now it's too late, maybe we're too far gone
But I went ooh ah
We're not the same anymore, you and I
Don't recognise that laugh or those tired eyes
Then you drove off to a new city of lights
I went ooh ah cause I didn't realise this was goodbye
We used to stare at the water
Standing together the waves couldn't knock us down
If we, could press rewind
Take back the lost time, before we slip and drown
And I remember when I finally called
Your voice echoing around four white walls
I played my part in this, it wasn't all you
It seems I let go, I gave up too soon
But I went ooh ah
We're not the same anymore, you and I
Don't recognise that laugh or those tired eyes
Then you drove off to a new city of lights
I went ooh ah cause I didn't realise this was goodbye
We used to stare at the water
Standing together the waves couldn't knock us down
If we, could press rewind
Take back the lost time, before we slip and drown
But I went ooh ah
We're not the same anymore, you and I
And the world looks upon us with such tired eyes
Then you drove off to a new city of lights
I went ooh ah cause I didn't realise this was goodbye
We used to stare at the water
Standing together the waves couldn't knock us down
If we, could press rewind
Take back the lost time, before we slip and drown
