I didn't know what time it was,
|
then I found you.
|
O, what a lovely time it was,
|
and sublime it was too.
|
|
I didn't know what day it was,
|
you held my hand.
|
Warm like the month of may it was,
|
I'll say it was grand.
|
|
It was grand, to be alive, to be young,
|
to be mad, to be yours alone.
|
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
|
hear your voice say I'm all your own.
|
|
I didn't know what year it was,
|
life had no prize.
|
I wanted love, and here it was,
|
shining out of your eyes.
|
|
I'm wise,
|
and I know what time it is now.
|
|
So grand, to be alive, to be young,
|
to be mad, to be yours alone.
|
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
|
hear your voice say I'm all your own.
|
|
I didn't know what year it was,
|
life had no prize.
|
I wanted love, and here it was,
|
shining out of your eyes.
|
|
I'm wise,
|
and I know what time it is now.
