Young - Mat Kerekes

Someone told me they found you

Sleepwalking through Babylon

You told me that you don’t have much but you still got more than anyone

You love the words that speak to you

And every line reminds you of

An old friend or a crippled love

A time when you were young

And for years they laughed at you

But they don’t got nothing to lose

No, they just talk instead

And I don’t care about them

Darling, it’s time to go

So things went my way for once

Caught in the illusion of the beautiful and numb

And this morning may call for you

And that’s when I felt the worse

But the moment I wrote it down was the moment I lived forever

And for years they laughed at you

But they don’t got nothing to lose

No, they just talk instead

And I don’t care about them

The moments I write down are forever

And I don’t care about them

The moments I write down are forever

Someone told me they found you

Sittin' in a parking lot

Thinking 'bout the things you’ve done

Back when you were young

You love the words that speak to you

And every song reminds you of

An old friend or a crippled love

Way back when you were young

And I know they don’t dream about

No, they don’t dream about

They don’t dream about nothin', oh

They just talk instead

And I don’t care about them

And the moments I write down are forever

And I don’t care about

The moments I write down

The moments I write down

I heard you made it through the wreckage

I knew you’d do it, I knew you’d do it

I heard you’re happy livin' easy

Like you always wanted, like you always wanted
