Young And Innocent Days

.

I look back at the way I used to look at life

Soft, white dreams with sugar coated outside

It was great, so great

Young and innocent days

.

I wish my eyes could only see

Everything, exactly as it used to be

It's too late, so late

Young and innocent days

.

I see the lines across your face

Time has gone and nothing ever can replace

Those great, so great

Young and innocent days

.
