Lyrics
I didn't have to give into sin
I resisted giving in to immoral behavior.
I needed something to believe in
I sought something to have faith in.
So I wander the world on my own
I traveled the world independently.
With open arms
With a welcoming attitude.
We sat by the river, turning water to wine
We spent time by a river, metaphorically turning ordinary experiences into something special.
We will be loved and forgotten
We will experience love but may be forgotten over time.
In the city of Paris, made me feel so alive!
Paris made me feel invigorated and alive.
I long for the days of summer
I yearn for the carefree days of summer.
Young and free we were in the mode
We were youthful and unrestricted.
Turned every heartache into gold
We turned every heartache or difficulty into something valuable.
Young and free we were seventeen
We were carefree at the age of seventeen.
How beautiful those days had been
Reflecting on how beautiful those days were.
I held a fear of days to come
I had anxiety about the future.
But nothing serves me like a song
Music is a powerful source of solace for me.
You know I hungered for the city's melody
I desired the captivating sounds of the city.
And powerless, it held me
The city, though powerful, left me feeling powerless.
Gave all of my courage, didn't want to let go
I gave my all courageously, not wanting to relinquish.
Never be lost or forgotten
My presence will never be lost or forgotten.
In the city of life, forever I walk
In the city of life, I walk eternally.
And live for the days of summer
I live for the nostalgic days of summer.
Young and free we were in the mode
We enjoyed being young and carefree.
Turned every heartache into gold
We transformed every pain into a valuable experience.
Young and free we were seventeen
We were carefree at seventeen.
How beautiful those days had been
Reflecting on the beauty of those past days.
