As a child Each day seemed to last forever All the answers To mysteries were mine to uncover As a child I was entertained by simple pleasures All the questions Were ways to find the hidden treasures As a child Sheltered by my innocence I was searching For ways to climb the highest fences The days go by Where did the time go [Chorus] Goodbye once upon a time No more thinking I'm past my prime Goodbye once upon a time No more living in the past What's mine is mine As a young man My life's gone through so many changes All the dragons I thought I'd slain became my frustrations As a young man I've come to meet my childhood's end All the answers Have since convinced me, I should stop pretending As a young man Finally I've realized I've been dreaming Living with my past disguises Where did the time go [Repeat Chorus] [Repeat Chorus]
