Only Young Lyrics - Out Of Season - Smile

This is the downstairs room where it all began 

With a green microphone and no future plan 

I'd stay inside and play 'til my hands went numb 

Strumming my J-45 until the rising sun 

There was word on the streets that I would make it far 

My last intention was to be a star 

I always found them stupid in the magazines 

Sharing their broken lives like they were broken jeans 

I was only young with an unknown road ahead of me 

That I had to take I had to face my destiny 

'Cos when you're young 

You'll do whatever it takes to get signed up 

And get on the road to your destiny

Before long I was packing my stuff and hitting the road 

My old yellow Renault could barely handle the load 

My cosy quiet town life, my future ex wife 

Were soon to be replaced by fun fast exciting times 

I developed a taste for heavy chemicals and dope 

That was the first real footfall on a very slippery slope 

The house of cards I built slowly tumbled down 

As I gradually became less easier to be around 

Photos 

I was only young, with an unknown road ahead of me 

That I had to take I had to face my destiny 

'Cos when you're young 

You'll do whatever it takes to get signed up 

And get on the road to your destiny
