Only 21 Songtext
von The Partisans

We grew up together
We saw it all, we thought we had it made
But how was I gonna know
That the bond we had would soon begin to fade
The times we spent, the fun we had
The memories that just turned bad
But that′s the price we pay for being young

We roamed the streets of every town
We almost had the country on its knees
But mass acceptance dragged us down
And we were a problem overcome with ease
But unlike us we thought was right
We went down without a fight
And we let them grind us into the ground


The years have gone behind us
And the things we've said and done
It′s strange to be nostalgic when you're only 21

There came a time when you had gone
When everything you stood for disappeared
Another look at the shadow look
And I doubt if you will ever reappear
We left a legacy of clones
Of broken minds, of broken homes
And it looks like I've become a memory

The years have gone behind us
And the things we′ve said and done
It′s strange to be nostalgic when you're only 21

The years have gone behind us
And the things we′ve said and done
It's strange to be nostalgic when you′re only 21
