Youth Is Wasted On The Young

　　Youth Is Wasted On The Young - Augustana

　　Saw my reflection in the mirror,

　　didn't recognize myself

　　I felt more distant and

　　more useless than the dust upon the shelf

　　I tried to fix it but

　　I only ended up hurting someone else

　　Oh lover can you hear me,

　　I'm so scared and I need a little help

　　I've built so many bridges,

　　then I sat and watched them burn

　　I had so many chances, never took the time to learn

　　If I could change the past,

　　go back erase what I had done

　　I'd redo everything, youth is wasted on the young

　　Yeah, you gotta crawl before you walk

　　Sometimes you gotta scream before you talk

　　You can't take back everything you've done

　　Youth is wasted on the young

　　Youth is wasted on the young

　　Even the thought of me without

　　you sends a shiver down my spine

　　I'd spend a lifetime on my knees for

　　just the chance to keep you mine

　　And like a rocket I shot up and

　　then I crashed and burned

　　I put the pieces back together as the seasons turned

　　If I could change the past,

　　go back erase what I had done

　　Redo most everything, youth is wasted on the young

　　Yeah, you gotta crawl before you walk

　　Sometimes you gotta scream before you talk

　　You can't take back everything you've done

　　Youth is wasted on the young

　　Youth is wasted on the young

　　Wasted on the young

　　Youth is wasted on the young

　　Wasted on the young

　　Yeah, you gotta crawl before you walk

　　Sometimes you gotta scream before you talk

　　You can't take back everything you've done

　　Youth is wasted on the young
