Lyrics
Balloons flying, children sighing
What a day to go kite flying
Breezes cool, away from school
Cowboys fighting out a duel
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will
Fishes biting, so exciting
Lunchtime sounds so inviting
Angler Bill, he gets a thrill
Sitting, watching bobbing quill
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will
Yesterday's dreams
Are tomorrow's sighs
Watch children playing
They seem so wise
Mary Green today's a queen
One thousand dollies are a-dreaming
Cotton frocks and golden locks
Her palace is an orange box
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will
Writer(s): Ray Thomas
