There is a city that I'm calling home
You've heard I hate it, that's what I pretend
We've never been so confident with my friends
Talking 'bout their exes while stoned

This little green square where we used to rest
Watching sunsets we were fascinated
Now there are tar and buildings, nothing left
Of the fields and trees, my youth is fading away

Wasn't meant to fall in love
I've never let the fates decide
My youth is fading away

Wasn't meant to know what's love
I've never let my hopes die
My youth is fading away

With my first love, talking on the phone
Same heartbeat in different time zones
She was sad as, crying in her room
I was riding at night, listening to Flume

Don't wanna break up
Wanna break up
It's been 4 years but it's still new
Between us, there is no more taboo, oh, oh

I wasn't meant to fall in love
I've never let the fates decide
My youth is fading away

I wasn't meant to know what's love
I've never let my hopes die
My youth is fading away

I wasn't meant to fall in love
I've never let the fates decide
My youth is fading
