When We Were Younger (Live At Wembley, UK / 2012)

[Verse 1]
When I was younger, I always thought
I could be someone, if I tried enough
When I was younger, my father said
"Wear a smile, show respect."
When I was younger, you never said
That when I was older, I'd feel helpless
When I was younger, you shone the light
Now that I'm older, it doesn't shine bright
When I was younger, you always said
That as I got older, you'd always be there

[Chorus]
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh

[Verse 2]
When I was younger, I used to care
About everything, that my father said
When I was younger, you even told me
"Show evil, the utmost respect."
When I was younger, I never thought
That when I was older, I'd see you, give up
Now that I'm older, I'll carry the torch
Just promise you'll stand, you'll be strong

[Chorus]
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing ooh
I'm singing oh

[Verse 3]
When I was younger, I never thought
When I was younger, I never thought
That when I was older, I'd fight your wars
When I was older, I'd fight your wars

[Chorus 2]
I'd do it for you
I'd do it for you
I'd do it for you
I'd do it for you

[Verse 4]
When I was younger, I only dreamed
That when I got older, you'd be proud of me
When I was younger, I promised you both
That when I was older, I'd headline Wembley
