When We Were the New Boys
Lyricist:Kevin Savigar, Rod Stewart
With laughing eyes I do recall Every face that crammed this hall And in this room our hats were hung And words were written and songs were sung
And we held our glasses high And we dared to reach for the sky And we never would grow old When we were the new boys
And on these streets, we were like kings We'd roll and tumble, fight and sing And in these smoky pubs, the yarns were spun And many a sweetheart was lost and won
And on these green fields we played for pride No quarter given, no compromise We were lovers and we were sons When we were the new boys When we were the new boys
Behind this cellar door on cheap guitars We played our blues till the early hours No one listening but a few old friends We never dreamed it could ever end
This was our moment, this was our space This was a jewel of a time to have graced Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But they're all sweet memories now When we were the new boys When we were the new boys
All my life I've been running Down the side of this hill But way down deep in my heart Don't want the water to ever be still
All these friends have long since gone Blown and scattered like autumn leaves Some are lawyers and some are thieves Some are now behind the sun
But I'll never, never be afraid From the cradle to the grave I learned my lesson and I learned it well When we were the new boys When we were the new boys
And we held our glasses high And we dared to reach for the sky And we never would grow old When we were the new boys
When we were the new boys When we were the new boys When we were the new boys
