[Verse 1]

Walking through the city we grew up in, everything has changed again

I remember fighting to believe in truth and how the good will win

But we were young, almost in love

Too scared to reach out for what was

[Verse 2]

Walking past the house that you grew up in, man, it looks so different now

Remembering the story of your first kiss, the feeling of my heart ripped out

[Chorus]

And we were young, almost in love

Too scared to reach out for what was

Looking back, we tried to laugh

City kids, the ghosts of past

[Verse 3]

You were just a girl, you wrote a letter, it said that we were dearest friends

I push myself to read a little further, it said we would be 'til we're dead

[Chorus]

But we were young, almost in love

Too scared to reach out for what was

Looking back, we tried to laugh

City kids, the ghosts of past

Woah, woah
