I Was The Child When I was young, We walked to school And I carried your books 'cause even then I was a fool But you grew up And said goodbye I still remember the things that made me cry For all too soon my story ends I found a love now not even friends Why loving you, loving me like you used to do I was the child I held your hand And I told you things And I made you believe, believe in fairy tales For all too soon my story ends I found a love now not even friends Why loving you, loving me like you used to do I was the child
