So long ago in a summer field
The grass would flow like a turning wheel
The day as long as your ponytails
Our bodies young and tough as nails

We used to be so young and free
We tried to fool the world but no one sees

Not a thing to do, not a place to see
Untroubled lives for you and me
Counting stars across the Summer sky
As each one falls into our eyes

We used to be so young and free
We tried to fool the world but no one sees
We used to be so young and free
We used to be so young and free

And now the world is crying out
For no God hears a silent shout
I need to run through those fields agian
Just one more time before the end

We used to be so young and free
We tried to fool the world but no one sees
We used to be so young and free
We tried to fool the world but no one sees
We used to be so young and free
We used to be so young and free
