LYRICS *
We were all so young
Not turned seventeen
When we started on
Those Reyrolle days
Bound till twenty one
And we’d not be free
Spent those precious years
In a shallow place
But I was just a kid, how could I ever know
What might lie in store along the way?
Much too immature to ever realise
I’d come to hunger for those Reyrolle days
They stole the dreams from you
Took the best of times
As we stumbled through
Those Reyrolle days
Taught us what to do
Tried to change our minds
From a dazzling view to an empty space
But we were shining lights
We were young at heart
Not yet ready for those factory ways
So we spread our wings
And we flew apart
Never more to live those Reyrolle days
I’m much older now and so wide awake
As I look back on those Reyrolle days
I’ve won through somehow
From some bad mistakes
And the tears have dried upon my face
And though at last it seems
That what I have is real
All my hopes were lost without a trace
But I still have dreams and I long to feel
The way I felt back in those Reyrolle days
