Lyrics for "When I Was Quite Young"
When I was quite young, my sun shone brightly on the clouds,
and when it was spring time, sweet gentle breezes drifted by.
(second verse)
Walking through green fields, birds sent their music from afar.
And stopping to rest there, life had such magic to give.
Many years now have past, since I have felt that way;
memories and faded things have geen my friends.
Following paths that led, never closer to my yearning'
Somewhere tomorrow, sunshine will brighten my days again.
and flowers will open, blossoms touched with morning's dew.
I've beeen waiting long for it to happen,
days that used to be so blue,
Will just vanish suddenly.,
I know it can be true.
(first verse again)
When I was quite young, my sun shone brightly on the clouds,
and when it was spring time, sweet gentle breezes drifted by.
When I was quite young...
