As I gaze back upon my life
As I recall when I was young
Remember things I said and done
When I was less afraid
With all the times that I've lived through
And all the people I once knew
I realise the way I grew
The way I am today
When I was young everything
Seemed to be such fun
When I was young
You made friends with everyone
No cares for tomorrow
Never a sorrow
When I was young
When I was young
there was laughter
In the games we played
When I was young
No one told you
How to act your age
If you needed you borrowed
No shame or sorrow
When I was young
I never thought that I was poor
The innocence of youth is pure
It's growing up that makes unsure
The way life's meant to be
The many friends I left behind
I keep them closely by my side
And guard them deeply
In my mind
It's just my history.
