White Houses Lyrics

'The rooms were so much colder then

My father was a soldier then

And times were very hard

When I was young 

I smoked my first cigarette at ten

And for girls, I had a bad yen

And I had quite a ball

When I was young 

When I was young, it was more important

Pain more painful

Laughter much louder

Yeah, when I was young

When I was young 

I met my first love at thirteen 

She was brown and I was pretty green 

And I learned quite a lot when I was young

When I was young

When I was young 

Pain more painful

Laughter much louder

Yeah, when I was young

When I was young 

My faith was so much stronger then

I believed in fellow man

And I was so much older then

When I was young

When I was young

When I was young
