When We Were The New Boys

Rod Stewart

Transposer:

Intro Verse With laughing eyes I do recall Every face that crammed this hall And in this room our hats were hung And words were written and songs were sung And we held our glasses high And we dared to reach for the sky And we never would grow old When we were the new boys Verse And on these streets we were like kings We’d roll and tumble fight and sing And in these smoky pubs the yarns were spun And many a sweetheart was lost and won And on these green fields we played for pride No quarter given no compromise We were lovers and we were sons When we were the new boys When we were the new boys Verse Behind this cellar door on cheap guitars We played our blues till the early hours No one listening but a few old friends We never dreamed it could ever end This was our moment this was our space This was a jewel of a time to have graced But they’re all sweet memories now When we were the new boys When we were the new boys Bridge All my life I’ve been running down the side of this hill But way down deep in my heart don’t want the water to ever be still Verse All these friends have long since gone Blown and scattered like autumn leaves Some are lawyers and some are thieves Some are now behind the sun But I’ll never never be afraid From the cradle to the grave I learned my lesson and I learned it well When we were the new boys When we were the new boys >C Outro And we held our glasses high And we dared to reach for the sky And we never would grow old When we were the new boys When we were the new boys When we were the new boys When we were the new boys >C

La chanson évoque avec nostalgie des souvenirs d'une jeunesse insouciante, où l'on se sentait invincible et plein de vie. Les années passées sont remplies de rires, d’amitiés durables et de moments de complicité dans des endroits simples, comme des pubs, où la musique et les histoires se mêlaient. C'est un hommage à ces années de folie, à l'innocence perdue et à la manière dont ces expériences ont façonné la vie des protagonistes. Chaque passage rappelle les liens créés, les rêves d'antan et la prise de conscience que le temps file, mais les souvenirs demeurent précieux et réconfortants.
