I Didn't Know What Time It Was
Once I was young yesterdayPerhaps danced with Jim and Paul and kissed some other chapsOnce I was young but never was naiveI thought I had a trick or two up my imaginary sleeveAnd now I know I was naiveI didn't know what time it was then I met youOh, what a lovely time it was, how sublime it was, tooI didn't know what day it was, you held my handWarm like the month of May, it was, and I'll say it was grandGrand to be alive, to be young, to be mad, to be yours aloneGrand to see your face, feel your touch, hear your voiceSay I'm all your ownI didn't know what year it was, life was no prizeI wanted love and here it was, shining out of your eyesI'm wise and I know what time it is nowI didn't know what time it was then I met youOh, what a lovely time it was, how sublime it was, tooI didn't know what day it was, you held my handWarm like the month of May, it was, and I'll say it was grandGrand to be alive, to be young, to be mad, to be yours aloneGrand to see your face, feel your touch, hear your voiceLetras de cancionesSay I'm all your ownI didn't know what year it was, life was no prizeI wanted love and here it was, shining out of your eyesI'm wise and I know what time it is now From Letras Mania
