Lyrics of Only the Young by Brandon Flowers
verse
Look back in silence
The cradle of your whole life
There in the distance
Losing its greatest pride
Nothing is easy
Nothing is sacred, why?
Where did the bow break?
It happened before your time
pre-chorus
And there were people there
Lovely as you'd ever care
Tonight, baby, you can start again
Laughing in the open air
Have yourself another dream
Tonight, maybe we can start again
chorus
Only the young can break away, break away
Lost when the wind blows on your own, oh
Only the young can break away, break away
Lost when the wind blows on your own, oh
verse
Mother, it's cold here
Father, thy will be done
Thunder and lightning are crashing down
They got me on the run, direct me to the sun
pre-chorus
Redemption keeps my covers clean
Tonight, baby, we can start again
chorus
Only the young can break away, break away
Lost when the wind blows on your own, oh
Only the young can break away, break away
Lost when the wind blows on your own, oh
bridge
And the sun will shine again
And the sun will shine again
Are you looking for a sign?
Or are you caught up in the lie?
hook
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
hook
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
chorus
Only the young can break away, break away
Lost when the wind blows on your own, oh
Only the young can break away, break away
Lost when the wind blows on your own, oh
outro
Only the young can
Lost when the wind blows
Only the young can
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Lost when the wind blows
