Children It was more fun to be children We just took life as it happened Run through the days Don't look behind
Over Wink of an eye and it's over What a surprise to discover We were people ourselves What kind of people did we want to be? No answer ever came to me
I didn't sleep at all last night Mom, I've come to you like yesterday About today, but I'm afraid Hon, come and sit by my side Listen to me, words come so hard But what my heart says I will give you
Because you are in love Your eyes begin to open As if you had awoken from a sleep Because you are in love You use imagination And lose your concentration
When someone drops his name You're back in his arms as always Your daydreams work out that way It's all just a trick your mind plays The more love grows, the more it stays the same
(Same little girl who's frightened) But I love him so (Same little girl who's sure) That you loves him so (Sees with a woman's vision) (Knows what a woman knows)
Because we are in love We reach for our tomorrows And know we won't be lonely In laughter and in sorrows
And that is all that love's about And we'll recall when time runs out That because you are in love To be loved a whole life long
(We know we won't be lonely) (In laughter and in sorrow)
And that is all that love's about And we'll recall when time runs out That because you are in love To be loved a whole life long
