When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
Well, the first 21Bueno, los primeros 21
It's a criminal rideEs un viaje criminal
But whatever you've donePero lo que sea que hayas hecho
You can get out alivePuedes salir con vida
The first 21Los primeros 21
Is it heaven or hell?¿Es el cielo o el infierno?
But who really caresPero a quién le importa realmente
We were under a spellEstábamos bajo un hechizo
The first 21Los primeros 21
And those hot summer nightsY esas noches calurosas de verano
We were high as the starsEstábamos tan elevados como las estrellas
Under big city lightsBajo las luces de la gran ciudad
But when we were youngPero cuando éramos jóvenes
We learned how to tell our own liesAprendimos a contar nuestras propias mentiras
Telling ourselves it was paradiseDiciéndonos a nosotros mismos que era el paraíso
And sometimes we even believed itY a veces incluso lo creíamos
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
Was like nothing that we'd ever seenEra como nada que hubiéramos visto antes
Pushing ourselves to have bigger dreamsEmpujándonos a tener sueños más grandes
And sometimes we'd even believed itY a veces incluso lo creíamos
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
The first 21Los primeros 21
Was a coming of ageFue una llegada a la adultez
We would take on the worldTomaríamos el mundo
Like we're turning a pageComo si estuviéramos pasando una página
The first 21Los primeros 21
It's not what you thinkNo es lo que piensas
Sometimes you flyA veces vuelas
And sometimes you sinkY a veces te hundes
But when we were youngPero cuando éramos jóvenes
We learned how to tell our own liesAprendimos a contar nuestras propias mentiras
Telling ourselves it was paradiseDiciéndonos a nosotros mismos que era el paraíso
And sometimes we'd even believed itY a veces incluso lo creíamos
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
Was like nothing that we'd ever seenEra como nada que hubiéramos visto antes
Pushing ourselves to have bigger dreamsEmpujándonos a tener sueños más grandes
And sometimes we'd even believed itY a veces incluso lo creíamos
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
But when we were youngPero cuando éramos jóvenes
We learned how to tell our own liesAprendimos a contar nuestras propias mentiras
Telling ourselves it was paradiseDiciéndonos a nosotros mismos que era el paraíso
And sometimes we even believed itY a veces incluso lo creíamos
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
Was like nothing that we'd ever seenEra como nada que hubiéramos visto antes
Pushing ourselves to have bigger dreamsEmpujándonos a tener sueños más grandes
And sometimes we'd even believed itY a veces incluso lo creíamos
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
We were just 21Solo teníamos 21 años
When we were youngCuando éramos jóvenes
