What Have We Become (guitar) by Laura Lied published on 2022-05-23T00:07:58Z Lyrics: You and were innocent What have we become Tell me if you find a thing You loved when you were young I know what I tried to be I know where I fell I wonder what you think of me And I wish you well The trees are green And the sun is getting low The world we’ve seen Was always just another show I was loud and arrogant You were brash but kind We were almost eloquent Everything was fine You told me your stories When we wandered on a walk Polishing past glories While I love the way you talk The trees are green The moon is on the rise The world I’ve seen Was always different in your eyes You’re the fool who followed me Alone into the dark You’ll remember what you see I know it left a mark I could hear your heart beat Then I felt the rain And we stumbled to our feet With nothing to explain The trees are green The sun is getting low The world we’ve seen Was just another show But I remember, I remember What I know you will forget I remember I remember When I hadn’t lost you yet I held you, I’ll hold you It was almost like a dance I tell you, I told you We never had a chance Now, I live in a paper house You stay on the run Tell me what you sing about Are you having fun I have counted all the hours And I cling to every one Tell me how to find a thing We loved when we were young The trees are green And the sun is getting low The stars may gleam But they are just another show The things we dream Are crueler than we know I never mean It but I always let you go NOTES: based on the this Poem: "When All the World is Young, Lad" by Charles Kingsley "When all the world is young, lad, And all the trees are green; And every goose a swan, lad, And every lass a queen; Then hey for boot and horse, lad, And round the world away! Young blood must have its course, lad, And every dog his day. When all the world is old, lad, And all the trees are brown; And all the sport is stale, lad, And all the wheels run down; Creep home, and take your place there, The spent and maimed among; God grant you find one face there, You loved when all was young."
