When You Were Young (Live At History) Lyrics
[Intro]
You guys having fun?
On our new record, Jen and I both did one song on our own and we're gonna start doing that in our shows as well just to have a moment where we can breathe offstage and the other one does all the work
Um, but I figured I’d start, uh, my section off with something that's not really country
[Verse 1]
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now, here he comes
[Chorus 1]
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined
When you were young
[Verse 2]
Can we climb this mountain? I don’t know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy, easy now, watch it go
[Chorus 2]
We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane that started turning
When you were young
When you were young
You guys having fun?
On our new record, Jen and I both did one song on our own and we're gonna start doing that in our shows as well just to have a moment where we can breathe offstage and the other one does all the work
Um, but I figured I’d start, uh, my section off with something that's not really country
[Verse 1]
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now, here he comes
[Chorus 1]
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined
When you were young
[Verse 2]
Can we climb this mountain? I don’t know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy, easy now, watch it go
[Chorus 2]
We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane that started turning
When you were young
When you were young
[Interlude]
And sometimes you close your eyes
And see the place where you used to live
When you were young
You look great, y'all
[Outro]
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know
And sometimes you close your eyes
And see the place where you used to live
When you were young
You look great, y'all
[Outro]
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know
