Broder Daniel - When We Were Winning Lyrics

oh when we were seventeen

oh life was like a film

when we were seventeen

the sky was always tangerine

we ran through streets at night

under starlight

we ran through streets at night

when we were winning



oh wild was the world

and wild we burned

we were kings of the streets

not yet beaten by defeats

but now it's hard to see

through a fog of memories

but I remember

when we were winning



now my friends are unemployed

not needed in this world

pushed down by this town and always turned down

but in dreams at night

they can sometimes recall

when we were heroes

when we were winning



what have we done to our lives?

we could've been anything

we gave it our love for what?

this is the time



oh it's in the air at night

there's a wind coming in

the days dying

oh it's so beautiful

there's something happening somewhere

I take the bus in to town

all I see is laughing

and we are winning



suddenly I grow older

young boys I haven't lived yet

before tonight's the memory

let's go out

I'm still young



ahhhhh aaaaahh aaaaaah aaaaaaah

aaaaahhh aaaaah aaaaaaaaaah
