[Chorus]
We used to never say never
Used to think we'd live for ever
Flying free beneath the sun
Days go running and hiding
The weeks go slipping and sliding
Years leave quicker every time they come
Remember when we were young

[Verse 1]
Look back to the best of days
Collecting all our yesterdays
As they build up one by one
How we beg and we borrow
Say we'll do it tomorrow
But tomorrow never seems to come

[Chorus]
We used to never say never
Used to think we'd live for ever
Flying free beneath the sun
Days go running and hiding
The weeks go slipping and sliding
Years leave quicker every time they come
Remember when we were young

[Verse 2]
And we were boys on the beach
Everything was in reach
I know it's hard to remember
But oh how the years they vanish
I always wanted to learn Spanish
And travel 'round South America

[Chorus]
We used to never say never
Used to think we'd live for ever
Flying free beneath the sun
Days go running and hiding
The weeks go slipping and sliding
Years leave quicker every time they come
Remember when we were young

[Chorus]
We used to never say never
Used to think we'd live for ever
Flying free beneath the sun
Days go running and hiding
The weeks go slipping and sliding
Years leave quicker every time they come
Do you remember when we were young?

[Outro]
Do you remember when we were young?
Do you remember when we were young?
Do you remember when we were young?
