When I Was A Child

When I Was A Child

(альбом: If You Go - 1961)

When I was a child, I thought, as a child
My dreams were my kingdom, my shrine
I thought, as a child, and I dreamed as a child
And the world that I lived in was mine
But all that I planned, all those castles of sand
Disappeared, disappeared long ago

I search but in vain, for the joys that remain
Of the days I used to know
For there while in school, was a child, not a fool
A child who was wiser than I
For love was her dream, and her love was supreme
And for the love such as her's, she would die
But today I have learned that my love can be spurned
And my dreams can be doomed and defied
Yes, I'm older today and I'm sad in a way
Sad that I'm no longer a child
