Song lyrics

We were young, unafraid

We were finding our own way

There is no wind, there is no rain

In the eye of the hurricane

Every time you climb that mountain

There's another one left to climb

Don't go looking for tomorrow

Leaving yesterday behind


Writing every page together

Those days were not to last forever

Diamonds in the rough

When we were us

Burn the house and torch the skyline

There was more than fire in our eyes

Love meant more than lust

When we were us


We were one, born and raised

More than blood runs through these veins

Cuts can heal, scars will fade

What we had will never change

Seasons pass and time will move on

You don't ever have to let it go

You can only go so far now

'Til you're on your way back home


Writing every page together

Those days were not to last forever

Diamonds in the rough

When we were us

Burn the house and torch the skyline

There was more than fire in our eyes

Love meant more than lust

When we were us


Memories are nothing more than ghosts that we let in

Don't be afraid of them, do you remember when


Writing every page together

Those days were not to last forever

Diamonds in the rough

When we were us

Burn the house and torch the skyline

There was more than fire in our eyes

Love meant more than lust

When we were us

When we were us
