Used To Be Young Lyrics
Verse 1
The truth is bulletproof
There’s no fooling you
I don’t dress the same
I and who you say
I was yesterday
Have gone our separate ways
Chorus
Left my living fast
Somewhere in the past
‘Cause that’s for chasing cars
Turns out open bars
Lead to broken hearts
And going way too far
Verse 2
I know I used to be crazy
I know I used to be fun
You say I used to be wild
I say I used to be young
You tell me time has done changed me
That’s fine, I’ve had a good run
I know I used to be crazy
That’s because I used to be young
Chorus
Left my living fast
Somewhere in the past
‘Cause that’s for chasing cars
Turns out open bars
Lead to broken hearts
And going way too far
Bridge
Take one, pour it out
It’s not worth crying ’bout
The things you can’t erase
Like tattoos and regrets
Words I never meant
And ones that got away
Left my living fast
Somewhere in the past
And took another road
Turns out crowded rooms
Empty out as soon
There’s somewhere else to go, oh
Chorus
Left my living fast
Somewhere in the past
‘Cause that’s for chasing cars
Turns out open bars
Lead to broken hearts
And going way too far
Verse 3
I know I used to be crazy
I know I used to be fun
You say I used to be wild
I say I used to be young
You tell me time has changed me
That’s fine, I’ve had a good run
I know I used to be crazy
That’s because I used to be young
Chorus
Left my living fast
Somewhere in the past
‘Cause that’s for chasing cars
Turns out open bars
Lead to broken hearts
And going way too far
Outro
I know I used to be crazy
Messed up, but God, was it fun
I know I used to be wild
That’s because I used to be young
Those wasted nights are not wasted
I remember every one
I know I used to be crazy
That’s because I used to be young
You tell me time has changed me
That’s fine, I’ve had a good run
I know I used to be crazy
That’s because I used to be young
