when we were young


everybody loves the things you do 

from your walk to your talk

if you are here by yourself  can i have a moment 

before i go 

cause you look like a movie

oh god this reminds me of

when we were young

can i photograph you in this light

in case this is the last time we are here like we were before we were sad of getting older

it was just like a movie

it was just like a movie

oh god this reminds me of when we were young

it was just like a movie

it was just like a movie

let me photograph you in this light in case this is the last time we are like this before

we were sad about getting older

i'm so mad about getting older 

it is just like a movie

it was just like a movie

it was just like a movie

oh god this reminds me

of when we were young

<p>when we were young, is a song that i wrote about my life and looking back on it and my first real true love with my current boyfriend Tanner Newman, it is about the future if we end up together, looking back &nbsp;on life and when we were young and growing old together. that is what i hope for and i pray for the moment when he gets down on one knee. hopefully not until we are a little bit older but that is how i feel about this song.</p>
