[Verse 1]
Only for the young is the dreams you might not have
And only for the young is the things we won’t remember
And long ago there was things in the past
And they never would be wrong
And for the young is the things we might remember

[Chorus 1]
Sitting here I’m waiting
A cause without a name
Sitting here I’m waiting
And I will feel
And down I will kneel
'Cause you were the one I never know
Living in sin
Living within
Is all the things I’ll never know

[Verse 2]
Only for the young is the things we might not know
Only for the young is the things we won’t remember
And long ago I said to myself that I feel, inside I know
Only for the young is the things I don’t remember

[Chorus 1]
Sitting here I’m waiting
A cause without a name
Sitting here I’m waiting
And I will feel
And down I will kneel
You were the one I never known
Living in sin
Somewhere within
You were the one I never known

[Chorus 2]
And I remember
Life without a name
And I remember
My life without a name
Wouh!

[Chorus 3]
And I might feel
And down I will kneel
'Cause you was the one I'll never know
Living in sin
Being within
'Cause you were the one I never known
You were the one I never known
You were the one I never known

One of the most decorated artists of the 1990s, for the best part of two decades Oasis were an instantly recognisable part of British culture and a key cog in the all-conquering machine that was the Cool Britannia movement.

The group rose to fame with the release of Definitely Maybe in 1994, which became an instant success, debuting at number one in the UK charts. They went on to have a much-publicised rivalry with Blur, and despite losing the biggest singles chart battle in British history, they would go on to win the war, becoming global stars with (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, which includes arguably their biggest hit, “Wonderwall.”

The band released their third album Be Here Now in 1997, amid conflict between the Gallagher brothers. Although it went to number two in the US charts, sales were below expectations and it has since been regarded poorly. Fourth album Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, released in 2000, was also received apprehensively by critics but managed to reach number one in the UK charts. It was during its recording that two members, guitarist Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs and bassist Paul ‘Guigsy’ McGuigan, quit so Colin ‘Gem’ Archer and Andy Bell were brought on to replace them, respectively. Heathen Chemistry was released in 2002 to similar success, and the band continued touring. In 2004, drummer Alan White left and Zac Starkey joined for sixth album Don’t Believe the Truth, released in 2005, but only lasted until the next album Dig Out Your Soul (2008), when he was unofficially replaced by Chris Sharrock.
