When We Were Beautiful lyrics

[Verse 1]
The world is cracked
The sky is torn
I'm hangin' in
You're holdin' on

I can't pretend
That nothin's changed
Living in the shadows
Of the love we made

[Chorus]
Back when we were beautiful
Before the world got small
Before we knew it all
Back when we were innocent
I wonder where it went
Let's go back and find it

[Post-Chorus]
Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la
Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la

[Verse 2]
Some dreams live
Some will die
But the you in me
Is still alive
Now am I blessed?
Or am I cursed?
'Cause the way we are
Ain't the way we were

[Chorus]
Back when we were beautiful
Before the world got small
Before we knew it all
Back when we were innocent
I wonder where it went
Let's go back and find it

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
The world is cracked
The sky is torn
So much less
Meant so much more

[Chorus]
Back when we were beautiful (Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la)
Before the world got small (Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la)
Before we knew it all
Back when we were innocent (Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la)
I wonder where it went (Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la)
Let’s go back and find it
Back when we were beautiful (Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la)
Back when we were beautiful (Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la)
Back when we were beautiful (Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la)
Back when we were beautiful (Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la)

[Post-Chorus]
Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la
Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la

[Outro]
Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la
Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la
