Lyrics Youth - Sam Roberts

Someone turn the lights on
I′ve been dreaming of the days of my youth
Blinded by the white sun
In the dream I always wake up too soon

On the first day, wide awake
Candle on the birthday cake
Scraped knees, make believe
Holidays by the sea
First snow, Peter Pan
Holding on to momma's hand
I never want to let it go

′Cause you're only young once
Try to remember
How your heart was beating
When you were young
You're only young oncе
They won′t last forever
Thеse days we are stealing
Under the sun

I can see that I have changed
But I feel like I′m the same wide-eyed child
Won't you take me there again
One more time
So I can see the way I did back then for awhile

On the school bus, paper planes
Hats on graduation day
Slow dance, shaky hands
Buried feet in the sand
First crush, heartbreak, never make the same mistakes
And never wish it all away

′Cause you're only young once
Try to remember
How your heart was beating
When you were young
You′re only young once
They won't last forever
These days we are stealing
Under the sun

Time pulls you on, child
Just know that I love you
Try to hold on to
These dreams you belong to
Sing from the heart, child
That′s all I ask of you
Try to hold on to
These dreams you belong to
The dreams you belong to
The dreams you belong to
