We Were Young and Didn't Know It Yet lyrics
We complained about the things that don't matter nowWe worried about things that never happenedWe had so much time we didn't treat it like a giftBecause gifts are only recognized in retrospectI would go back just to be that careless againJust to have that much in front of meWe were young and didn't know it yetWe were golden and couldn't see the glowWe were young and didn't know it yetAnd maybe that was part of the beauty of itIf we'd known we would have been too carefulToo aware to be completely in itWe were young and didn't know it yetAnd that not-knowing was the whole of the giftThe photographs show people full of futureEyes that haven't learned to squint against the yearsAnd when I see them I feel something mix togetherGratitude and grief in equal measureI am glad I lived it even without knowingI am glad I didn't waste it on the worryWe were young and didn't know it yetWe were golden and couldn't see the glowWe were young and didn't know it yetAnd maybe that was part of the beauty of itIf we'd known we would have been too carefulToo aware to be completely in itWe were young and didn't know it yetAnd that not-knowing was the whole of the giftWe were youngWe were really youngAnd it was everythingAnd we were in itWe were youngWe really wereAnd it was everything
