When I Was Young lyrics
by Eddie Rabbitt
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
