The Killers - Sam's Town (2006) - When You Were Young lyrics

• You sit there in your heartache
  Waiting on some beautiful boy to
  To save you from your old ways
  You play forgiveness
  Watch it now
  Here he comes
  
  He doesnt look a thing like Jesus
  But he talks like a gentleman
  Like you imagined
  When you were young
  
  Can we climb this mountain
  I dont know
  Higher now than ever before
  I know we can make it if we take it slow
  Let's take it easy
  Easy now
  Watch it go
  
  We're burning down the highway skyline
  On the back of a hurricane
  That started turning
  When you were young
  When you were young
  
  And sometimes you close your eyes
  And see the place where you used to live
  When you were young
  
  They say the devil's water
  It ain't so sweet
  You dont have to drink right now
  But you can dip your feet
  Every once in a little while
  
  You sit there in your heartache
  Waiting on some beautiful boy to
  To save you from your old ways
  You play forgiveness
  Watch it now
  Here he comes
  
  He doesnt look a thing like Jesus
  But he talks like a gentleman
  Like you imagined
  When you were young
  (talks like a gentleman)
  (like you imagined)
  When you were young
  
  I said he doesnt look a thing like Jesus
  He doesnt look a thing like Jesus
  But more than you'll ever know
