Watch Adele Debuts Live Version of "When We Were Young" and You'll Get Shivers! (Plus Lyrics)

Adele is undoubtedly the biggest artist of this decade. "21" managed to sell more than 30 million copies and spawned worldwide hits "Rolling in the Deep", "Someone Like You", and "Set Fire to the Rain". Her recently announced third studio album "25" will be out this 20th of November and has already amassed 500,000 copies in pre-orders alone and is predicted to sell more than 3 million copies worldwide in its first week, which will become the biggest in the history of music if that'll happen.

Her triumphant return in music started with "Hello" (released late October) which broke humongous amounts of records, including especially the biggest first week sales for a digital song in the U.S., selling more than 1 million digital copies in a single week, and breaking the Vevo and Spotify records held by other artists.

Adele talked about her upcoming album frequently after the album went up for pre-orders, and had made constant comment that "When We Were Young" is her favorite song from "25".  And guess what? Adele just premiered a live version of the song in her Vevo channel! It's a very big song, much bigger than "Hello", although who knows, this is the live version, this could be stripped to an acoustic version. Nonetheless, it's another big hit for her!

Adele - When We Were Young (Live at The Church)

When We Were Young lyrics:

(Verse 1)

Everybody loves the things you do

From the way you talk, to the way you move 

Everybody here is watching you 

Cause you feel like home, you're like a dream come true 

But if by chance you're here alone 

Can i have a moment before i go? 

Cause ive been by myself all night long 

Hoping you're someone i used to know 

(Pre-chorus)

You look like a movie, you sound like a song 

My God this reminds me of when we were young 

(Chorus)

Let me photograph you in this light in case it is the last time 

Though we might be exactly like we were before we realised 

We were sad of getting old it made us restless 

It was just like a movie, it was just like a song 

When we were young 

(Verse 2)

I was so scared to face my fears 

Cause nobody told me, that you'd be here 

And i swear you've moved overseas 

That's what you said when you left me 

(Pre-chorus)

You still look like a movie, you still sound like a song 

My God this reminds me of when we were young

(Chorus)

Let me photograph you in this light in case it is the last time 

Though we might be exactly like we were before we realised 

We were sad of getting old it made us restless 

It was just like a movie, it was just like a song 

When we were young 

(Bridge)

Its hard to win me back 

Everything just takes me back to 

When you were there, to when you were there. 

And a part of me keeps holding on 

Just in case it hasn't gone 

I guess i still care, do you still care? 

(Pre-chorus)

It was just like a movie, it was just like a song 

My God this reminds me of when we were young

(Chorus)

Let me photograph you in this light in case it is the last time 

Though we might be exactly like we were before we realised 

We were sad of getting old it made us restless 

Oh Im so mad im getting old it makes me reckless 

It was just like a movie, it was just like a song 

When we were young.
