In Those Days

There's a blanket of mist on the dew coverded fields

Far in the distance church bells peal

And a hazy white sunlight breaks through the dawn

Catching the cobwebs spun on the lawn

And in through the curtains, a thin shaft of light

Capturing diamonds of dust in their flight

In those days, long before you were born

Those days, when i was a child

As i look back it seems like only yesterday

When i was your age



As a golden red sun sets in a mackerel sky

On long summer evenings in twilight

Riding home on your shoulders, holding your hand

Watching the hourglass filling with sand

And i still remember the stories you read

And being carried back to my own little bed



In those days, long before you were born

Those days, when i was a child

As i look back it seems like only yesterday

When i was your age



And i still remember the stories you read

And being carried back to my own little bed



In those days, long before you were born

Those days, when i was a child

As i look back it seems like only yesterday

When i was your age



In those days, long before you were born

Those days, when i was a child

As i look back it seems like only yesterday

When i was your age
