When I Was Young

Lyrics

When I was young and dreams were new,
 I loved a girl who looked like you.
 I saw her face in mountains stream.
 I lingered there and lost myself in dreams.
 But we were young and tossed away
 Our precious love along the way.
 We parted strangers, thoughtless and free
 And set our hearts to wandering aimlessly.
 But looking back, somehow I see
 How seldom love has come to me.
 And I confess that now and then
 I think of her remembering when
 If I were young and dreams were new,
 I'd love a girl who looked like you.
 I'd hold her close if she'd agree
 To love perhaps a boy who looked like me.
 Oooooo---
