Lyrics

At the end of a long day of 40 degrees in the shade I am standing on a hillside watching someone I used to love play And the singer is much thinner than I remember So what does that make me And he's hiding what's left of his hair under a cap No we are not so young but we are still free And the moon tonight is a custard cream And it hangs high above the Adriatic sea And there's a wooden stage and a tree And electric lights swaying in the breeze And I don't remember very much I admit I am guilty of wasting through the day But you light me up like a 1000 fireflies Oh we are not so young But we are still free And the city tonight is a distant dream And the countryside is the place to be And we don't dance very well but we can twirl And I don't remember very much I admit I am guilty of wasting through the day But you light me up like a 1000 fireflies Oh we are not so young But we are still free
