The Days When We Were Young
Words & Music: Pat Drummond

I sometimes wish that you and I
could sail back to the start
before the storms that lashed our lives
made shipwrecks of our hearts
To summer nights and starry skies
The taste upon my tongue
Of long ago and far away
The days when we were young

It seems so infinitely sad, that after all we've known
When I lay down beside you now, I feel so all alone
For there were times we talked all night, until the morning sun
But it was long ago and far away, in the days when we were young.

Now I'd give anything at all
If we could start again
Sometimes it seems we're strangers now
At best, we're just good friends
But I recall when we were more,
So tell me what's become
Of long ago and far away
And the days when we were young.
