Please, don't tell me any more
There's a weight in your eyes
And it weighs on my heart
Where have the children gone'
We were innocent once
But that was so long ago

Have we lost our way
Back home'
We have made mistakes
I know
I know

Don't tell me of better days
There's a memory I have
Could be something I read
Of laughter and cheap guitars
And a house full of friends
Could have been one of ours

We stayed up late
We loved the stars
Can't remember the rest
Just a few cars

Have we lost our way
Back home'
We have made mistakes
I know
I know

I think they lost something
That they miss
I wanna find that book
Dust it off
And read it again
There was hope in the end

Have we lost our way
Back home'
We have made mistakes
I know

We were braver still
When we were young
And when we were young
We spoke in tongues
