We Were Beautiful

I am not so sure, I am not so brave You are not so broken you cannot be saved We are just affection thrown out in all directions We cannot take it back, can you picture that? This is all we have, this is all we need Life is like a circle coming back to me This will not be easy, this will not be safe Nothing ever feels that way no more Yeah, but once we were young We were beautiful and we were strong We didn't think too hard of what would come We were beautiful when we were young Well, I'm somewhere in the moment, I ain't lost, I own it I see what it can be, the proof is all around me Second thoughts and doubt turn me inside out The innocence I lack, can you picture that? So you call on the devil but the devil don't come You call on yourself 'cause you never need no one else Like this is the last time, like you've been lost inside your mind Fighting all this time, your memories are kind Living life in rewind just reminds you Once we were young We were beautiful and we were strong We didn't think too hard of what would come We were beautiful when we were young Oh, we were beautiful when we were young Yeah, but once we were young We were beautiful and we were strong We didn't think too hard of what would come 'Cause we were beautiful when we were young Oh yeah, once we were young We were beautiful and we were strong We didn't think too hard of what would come 'Cause we were beautiful when we were young Yeah, we were beautiful when we were young --- We Were Beautiful - Rob Thomas
