THE KILLERS - WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG LYRICS

Complimentary "When You Were Young" Ringtone

You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch him now, here he come

He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you were young

Can we climb this mountain? I don't know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
That's takin' 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 don't 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 him now, here he come

He doesn't 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)
When you were young

I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know

	If you think this song is about Satan you need to go kill yourself :] Its a song about love, in short. Kay?

	Whoever says this song is about Satan is a moron. This song does not have subliminal messaging. Wake up people. Don't let idiots like Bermu29 control what you listen to. The song is about a girl who doesn't like the man who can make her happy. Apparently, she wants someone more attractive than he is. The devil's water remark is about being faithful to the person you are with. The Jesus references are about the less-than-attractive guy not being a "beautiful boy", but he is a good-hearted person. Basically it means listen you your heart, not your eyes.

	This song has subliminal messages! Listen carefully in the last chorus, in the back you can here a chanting that says "SATAN" repeatedly, which is more than a coincidence when in the chorus the line says" he doesn’t look a thing like Jesus".
