We Were Kings
Remember when I was new in town?
I always walked straight with my head down
They didn't even try to figure me out
Until you came around
Everyone thought that I'd play ball
Cause I was thirteen and six feet tall
Skipping out class and writing songs
You were there to sing alone
We were kings
Before we had a crown
Yeah we had dreams
But damn look at us now
Even if we're so far away
Remember those days like yesterday
You're in all these memories
I haven't seen you since seventeen
But you know that don't change a thing
Cause you still mean everything...
Yeah you still mean the world to me
Remember when they beat me down again
Just for the colour of my skin
And when I thought I'd fall apart
You were there to pick me up
Yeah we were kings
Before we had a crown
Yeah we had dreams
But damn look at us now
Even if we're so far away
Remember those days like yesterday
You're in all these memories
I haven't seen you since seventeen
But you know that don't change a thing
Cause you still mean everything...
Yeah you still mean the world to me
Nah nah oh
Nah nah oh
Nah nah oh
Nah nah oh
Even if we're so far away
Remember those days like yesterday
You're in all these memories
I haven't seen you since seventeen
But you know that don't change a thing
Yeah you still mean the world to me
I always walked straight with my head down
They didn't even try to figure me out
Until you came around
Everyone thought that I'd play ball
Cause I was thirteen and six feet tall
Skipping out class and writing songs
You were there to sing alone
We were kings
Before we had a crown
Yeah we had dreams
But damn look at us now
Even if we're so far away
Remember those days like yesterday
You're in all these memories
I haven't seen you since seventeen
But you know that don't change a thing
Cause you still mean everything...
Yeah you still mean the world to me
Remember when they beat me down again
Just for the colour of my skin
And when I thought I'd fall apart
You were there to pick me up
Yeah we were kings
Before we had a crown
Yeah we had dreams
But damn look at us now
Even if we're so far away
Remember those days like yesterday
You're in all these memories
I haven't seen you since seventeen
But you know that don't change a thing
Cause you still mean everything...
Yeah you still mean the world to me
Nah nah oh
Nah nah oh
Nah nah oh
Nah nah oh
Even if we're so far away
Remember those days like yesterday
You're in all these memories
I haven't seen you since seventeen
But you know that don't change a thing
Yeah you still mean the world to me
