When I Was Younger
When I was younger
I seem to remember
Holding a finger
While walking to .. mother standing
By ten I could tell her
I'll love you for forever
And I'll tread on the stars just to be with you
Not withstanding
But staring into her vacant face, yes
I wished my eyes would never stray
She said why cry little baby, why cry, hey, hey
Why cry little baby, wipe your eyes, hey, hey
Now I am older I don't sit on her shoulder
To gaze over worlds that are nowhere to
the highest standing
Instead I'm staring into your ageless faces
And I wish my eyes will never stray
So why cry little baby, why cry, hey, hey
Why cry little baby, wipe your eyes, hey, hey, hey
Why should you worry
Know there'll be an answer when you fall
So don't you push or be in hurry
Cos learning how to stand is why you fall
When I was I younger
