We Were Free Lyrics - Singles - Gregory Brock

When we were young 

Not yet become the sum 

Of our hopes and fears 

The days would last 

We had no past or pain 

To jade our years 

So we would run 

The summer sun was all 

That we needed then 

Climbing the trees 

Feeling the breeze upon 

Our sunburned skin 

(Chorus) 

We were free to be 

Anything we wanted to be 

All we believed 

Or even conceived 

You and me were three- 

Both of us and all our dreams 

Finding our way 

Through games that we play 

(Bridge) 

Take me back to yesterday 

When our hearts and minds would play 

Simple it was 

Maybe because the things 

That mattered then 

Weren't the same 

as we now claim to be 

Like how much we gain 

A summer friend 

Love with no end 

Forgive again and again 

I now understand 

That it's not the things that i 

Can hold in my hand
