When I Was Young

On a dusty shelf in a book of poems

That I bought you long ago

Found a photograph of you and me

And it was faded and old

And we were laughing so lovely

And we drove each other wild

When I was young and you were mine

We were happy all the time

The bells were ringin' and love, love was blind

La-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la

Now the autumn leaves blow around my head

Like the memories to my mind

And it's sad to think of all the dreams

That we've left somewhere far behind

And what I'd give to go back to you

And that golden summer day

When I was young and you were mine

We were happy all the time

The bells were ringin' and love, love was blind

La-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la

You were mine

All the time

And love, love was blind

La-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

La-la-la-la-la-la
