[Verse 1]

I scraped my knee trying to climb up on the big tree

Taking turns chopping wood in half like Bruce Lee

Hold my hand and we'll jump together on three

[Pre-Chorus 1]

My bike was always faster when you rode it

Flying right through the clothesline and you broke it

We even stole your mama's favorite lipstick

[Chorus]

We were young lions

Young lions

Young lions

[Drop]

[Verse 2]

Moved out west and I never got to tell you

You left a note on the desk in my bedroom

It’s for the best, I'm choosing to believe

[Pre-Chorus 2]

A couple years and a thousand miles later

Broken promises written down on paper

I heard somewhere you've been talking about me

[Chorus]

We were young lions

Young lions

Young lions

[Drop]
