When We Were The New Boys Lyrics - Rod Stewart

With laughing eyes I do recall 

Every face that crammed this hall 

And in this room our hats were hung 

And words were written and songs were sung 

And we held our glasses high 

And we dared to reach for the sky 

And we never would grow old 

When we were the new boys 

And on these streets we were like kings 

We'd roll and tumble, fight and sing 

And in these smoky pubs the yarns were spun 

And many a sweetheart was lost and won 

And on these green fields we played for pride 

No quarter given, no compromise 

We were lovers and we were sons 

When we were the new boys 

When we were the new boys

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Behind this cellar door on cheap guitars 

We played our blues till the early hours 

No one listening but a few old friends 

We never dreamed it could ever end 

This was our moment, this was our space 

This was a jewel of a time to have graced 

But they're all sweet memories now 

When we were the new boys 

When we were the new boys 

All my life I've been running 

down the side of this hill 

But way down deep in my heart 

don't want the water to ever be still 

All these friends have long since gone 

Blown and scattered like autumn leaves 

Some are lawyers and some are thieves 

Some are now behind the sun 

But I'll never, never be afraid 

From the cradle to the grave 

I learned my lesson and I learned it well 

When we were the new boys 

When we were the new boys 

And we held our glasses high 

And we dared to reach for the sky 

And we never would grow old 

When we were the new boys 

When we were the new boys 

When we were the new boys 

When we were the new boys
