Once I was young
Yesterday perhaps
Danced with jim and paul
And kissed some other chaps
Once I was young
But never was naive
I thought I had a ** or two
Up my imaginary sleeve
And now I know I was naive
I didn't know what time it was
Then I met you
Oh what a lovely time it was
How sublime it was too
I didn't know what day it was
You held my hand warm
Like the month of may it was
And I'll say it was grand
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 was 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
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 was 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
