When the world was sweet
And lay at our feet
You were free and you chose to run
With the wild men
And you drew me in
With a sad girl grin
Though I knew you loved more than one
We were wild then
The nights were loud and friendly and they sheltered us awhile
We lived our ever after then and there
You taught me how to move you and I taught you how to smile
The music of our laughter filled the air
And our hope was everywhere
Then you broke our spell
And it hurt like hell
But the pain didn't last so long
We were young then
Then my mind runs free
Over you and me
And it sores like a lonely song
We were wild then
We were wild then
We were wild then
