[Verse 1]
Young
We were so young when we thought that we knew how to love
Fought about anything, everything led to dysfunction
But we just gotta own that shit
Don't let it go like this
Maybe we can grow from this, yeah

[Chorus]
We both know I go too far like when I wrecked your car
And almost fought your father when he pushed me in the yard
And all those nights we snuck out, like to meet up at the bar
Don't worry, my love, we're learning to love
But it's hard when you're young

[Hook]
Yeah, it's hard when you're young

[Verse 2]
Caught, we were caught up in the high, it was better than drugs
Too high to see that it would all lead to destruction
At least we both know that shit
We just gotta own that shit
I hope that we can grow from this, yeah

[Chorus]
We both know I go too far like when I wrecked your car
And almost fought your father when he pushed me in the yard
And all those nights we snuck out, like to meet up at the bar
Don't worry, my love, we're learning to love
But it's hard when you're young

[Hook]
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, yeah, it's hard when you're young

(I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
Say what you want, but it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
You say what you want, but it's hard when you're young)

[Chorus]
We both know I go too far like when I wrecked your car
And almost fought your father when he pushed me in the yard
And all those nights we snuck out, like to meet up at the bar
Don't worry, my love, we're learning to love
But it's hard when you're young

[Bridge]
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
Say what you want, but it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
You say what you want, but it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
You say what you want, but it's hard when you're young

[Outro]
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, oh, yeah, it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
You say what you want, but it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
You say what you want, but it's hard when you're young

The Chainsmokers

The Chainsmokers are a New York City-based duo consisting of Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall. They write and produce their songs, and often feature guest vocalists.

The duo rose to fame with their 2014 viral hit, “#Selfie” and then broke into the mainstream with their hit song “Roses” and their debut EP Bouquet.

In a March 2016 YouTube video, the duo talked about plans to release songs featuring their vocals. This was proven when “Closer” was released on July 2016 with Andrew Taggart as co-vocalist, alongside American singer-songwriter Halsey. “Closer” became both The Chainsmokers and Halsey’s most famous song.
