Testo di When You Were Young

Look at the fool you have been They drained the pool while you drowned in the dream They bought your beauty and your soul Then softly sold you back what they stole So look into the mirror do you recognise someone Is it who you always hoped you would become When you were young The disappointment of success Hangs from your shoulders like a hand-me down dress And down nostalgia?s rocky road You watch your former lovers growing old So look into the mirror do you recognise someone Is it who you always hoped you would become When you were young Sometimes your lack of sympathy gets hard to explain So on your mask of make up just paint A little parody of pain So I look into the mirror and I recognise someone It is who you always hoped you would become When you were young
