You & My Youth

I remember September '93
You and me as wild as we were free
believing that's the way we'd always be

All the love and all the plans we made
we were sure we'd make it all the way
and look what I am left with here today

It's all gone away

I've been holding on too long
to something that's already gone
I've been clinging way too fast
to something that's all in the past
now it's time I face the truth
it's time I said goodbye to you,
you & my youth

A lotta dreams and weed and a lotta hope
it's all gone up in smoke
wishing I knew where you are tonight but I don't

So long ago

I've been holding on too long
to something that's already gone
I've been clinging way too fast
to something that's all in the past
now it's time I face the truth
it's time I said goodbye to you
you & my youth

Now I'm telling myself this is the last time
I'll ever step out into the night
imagining what I've lost is what I'll find

I've been holding on too long
to something that's already gone
I've been clinging way too tight
but the past won't get me through the night
it's time I face up to the truth
it's time I said goodbye to you,
you & my youth
