Once we were foolish children
|
Playing as children play
|
Racing through a meadow April bright
|
Dreaming on a hilltop half the night
|
Now that we're growing older
|
We have no time to play
|
Now that we're growing wiser
|
We are not wise enough to stay
|
|
Young and foolish
|
Why is it wrong to be
|
Young and foolish?
|
We haven't long to be
|
Soon enough the carefree days
|
The sunlit days go by
|
Soon enough the bluebird has to fly
|
|
We were foolish
|
One day we fell in love
|
Now we wonder
|
What were we dreaming of
|
Smiling in the sunlight
|
Laughing in the rain
|
I wish that we were young and foolish again
|
