The rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then
And times were very hard
When I was young
When I was young

Smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls, I had a bad yen
Life meant so much more
When I was young
When I was young

When I was young, it was more important
Pain more painful, the laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
When I was young

I met my first love at thirteen?
She was brown, and I was pretty green
I learned so very much
When I was young
When I was young

When I was young, it was more important
Pain more painful, laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
When I was young

My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow men
and I was so much older then
When I was young
When I was young
