Madeleine Peyroux - Last Night When We Were Young Lyrics






Last night when we were young
Love was a star, a song unsung
Life was so new, so real, so right
Ages ago, last night

Today the world is old
You flew away, time grew cold
Where is that star that shone so bright,
Ages ago, last night?

To think that spring had depended
On merely this: a look, a kiss
To think that something so splendid
Could slip away in one little daybreak

Well now, I'll reminisce
And recollect the sighs and the kisses
The arms that clung
When we were young, last night
Last night

To think that spring had depended
On merely this: a look, a kiss
To think that something so splendid
Could slip away in one little daybreak

Oh now, I'll reminisce
And recollect the sighs and the kisses
The arms that clung
When we were young, last night
Last night
Last night
