We Were Beautiful - Rob Thomas

I am not so sure, I am not so brave

You are not so broken you can not be saved

We are just affection thrown out in all directions

We cannot take it back, can you picture that?

This is all we have, this is all we need

Life is like a circle coming back to me

This will not be easy, this will not be safe

Nothing ever feels that way no more

Yeah but once we were young

We were beautiful and we were strong

We didn’t think too hard of what would come

We were beautiful when we were young

Well I’m somewhere in the moment, I ain’t lost I own it

I see what it can be, the proof is all around me

Second thoughts and doubt turn me inside out

The innocence I lack, can you picture that?

So you call on the devil but the devil don’t come

You call on yourself 'cause you never need no one else

Like this is the last time, like you’ve been lost inside your mind

Fighting all this time, your memories are kind

Living life in rewind just reminds you

Once we were young

We were beautiful and we were strong

We didn’t think too hard of what would come

We were beautiful when we were young

Oh, we were beautiful when we were young

Yeah but once we were young

We were beautiful and we were strong

We didn’t think too hard of what would come

'Cause we were beautiful when we were young

Yeah but once we were young

We were beautiful and we were strong

We didn’t think too hard of what would come

'Cause we were beautiful when we were young

Yeah we were beautiful when we were young
