Cruel To Be Young LYRICS
Got a letter from my woman just the other day
Telling me how good she feels, big deal
It only adds to my ever increasing loneliness
And you know what that means
Oh girl, don't cry, cause I wanna live, I don't wanna die
I'm here with you but you're so far away
I know it's wrong, but I don't relate and I don't belong
I'm here with you but you're so far away
It's so cruel to be young, and the songs you wanna sing have all been sung
It's no fun, to be living right now
All of the wars have been won
There's nothing anymore worth dying for
I'm so bored
You're so far away
So far away
There's a place I know where everybody wants to go
Sipping coffee vaseline, ice cream
I could go there but I know I won't enjoy myself
And you know what that means
I fly so high, that I hit the ground and I wanna die
I'm here with you but you're so far away
I know It's wrong, but I don't relate to what's going on
I'm here with you but you're so far away
It's so cruel to be young, and the songs you wanna sing have all been sung
It's no fun, to be living right now
All of the wars have been won
And there's nothing anymore worth dying for
I'm so bored
You're so far away
So far away
So far away
Leave it
I get so high that I can't look myself in the eye
I'm here with you but you're so far away, babe
You're so far away, babe
You're so far away, babe
You're so far away
So far away
So far away
So far away (repeat)

Gregg and Danielle should just release a new album.
this is incredible, sometimes I wonder if, maybe you are Greg Alexander himself
Gregg Alexander & Danielle Brisebois are behind this channel.
This is UNBELIEVABLE!! It sounds like a song that was cut from Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too!!
This channel has gotten me through some of the most grueling semesters ever lol, thanks so much for sharing this amazing content by Gregg. Always brings a smile to my face :)
Same
I found this channel back in college as well, same for me
Bro I can’t believe you’re still active, I love this music and I love Gregg and New radicals, and I’m so glad you’re slowly recollecting his genius music, thank youuuuu
Ripped by me from a tape I own :) An awesome track.
Thanks Mike! What's the story of the tape?
Thank you for sharing 🥂
Amazing to say the least man thanks i so needed this today.....
Thank you so much!!!
@@mattsephton The tape was sold to me by a Discogs user who obtained it as part of a collection belonging to Geoff Travis of Rough Trade, who was given the tape by Gregg in about 1997 or so. It uses commercial blank tape, so it's likely that Gregg dubbed the tape himself. The versions of "Gotta Stay High" and "Someday We'll Know" are nearly identical to the New Radicals versions save for being rough mixes, so this would have been somewhat into production of the album. Stay tuned for the song by song /biography book on Gregg I am writing titled "Lost Stars", it will be out in the near future :)
there is no artist out there that makes me wish they still made music or atleast released more of it like gregg, his unreleased work is amazing and even the demos that arnt supposed to be released are better than the fully realized song like game of love and so on.
Thanks again for the upload...this song is definitely up there in the top GA songs for me....I don't know where you keep getting these maybe you are GA, either way keep em coming
Im blown away by it. It sounds like this could have been done around the time of the NR album but wasnt included on the album.
Phenomenal cut, should be a hit
One of his best!
Thanks for the Upload. For your Work. And all the seldom stuff. Hope youre healthy.
Fan number one
LOCOPORLOCURA22 ! THANKS SO MATCH !! 🙌🙌🇧🇷
I love you Gregg Alexander!!!!! Your music really put me in a great mood! I love you since 1998!
Sounds like a 70s song...i can imagine maybe David Bowie, maybe Elton John or Paul Mccartney or any 70s brit singer doing this, maybe even some early 80s singer.
This is just amazing!!!!!!
Loco i belive you are Gregg, ... i love u !!!
There is no other musician whose songs I would relate to so much. The rawness and authenticity of Gregg's works have always fascinated me. Many thanks for the upload )
Sorry I'm late to the party, but thanks for the upload!😃
Yes!!
Obrigada!
Incredible, as always 😊
This is sooooo goooooodddd!!!!!
Oh yes! Thanks
Thank you!
THANK YOU I NEEDED THIS
Incredible!
❤❤❤
The best
You're my favorite.
Songs genius…
Aí meu Deus!
It's kind of giving me an Oasis/Beatles vibe with his slight British accent 😂 But it's so good. Damn. The guitar...😢😢😢
WOW.. this song is as good as any song they have ever done....WTF....
This song is great, but it is not better than Gregg Alexander - Whatever Turns You On (demo)
