When We Were Winning Lyrics

Oh when we were seventeen 

Oh life was like a film 

When we were seventeen 

The sky was always tangerine 

We ran through streets at night 

Under starlight 

We ran through streets at night 

When we were winning 



Oh wild was the world 

And wild we burned 

We were kings of the streets 

Not yet beaten by defeat 

But now it's hard to see 

Through a fog of memories 

But I remember 

When we were winning 



Now my friends are unemployed 

Not needed in this world 

Pushed down by this town 

And always turned down 

But in dreams at night 

They can sometimes recall 

When we were heroes 

When we were winning 



What have we done to our lives? 

We could've been anything 

We gave it our love for what? 

This is the time 



Oh it's in the air at night 

There is a wind coming in 

The days dying 

Oh it's so beautiful 

There's something happening somewhere 

I take the bus into town 

All I see is laughing 

And we are winning 



Soon I grow older 

But God knows 

I haven't lived yet 

Before tonight's a memory 

Let's go out 

I am still young 



ahhhhh aaaaahh aaaaaah aaaaaaah 

aaaaahhh aaaaah aaaaaaaaaah
