Lyrics:

When I was young
The sky seemed so tall
Everything shone in the happiest sunlight forever

And tunnels of leaves
Made specially for me
Led to a magic place where I could hide for a while

And hope filled the air
My treasures were there

When I was young
The summers were long
Under the beach-huts my brother and I would be playing

And we would find shells
To put on my sill
Gathering dust as they lay unattended till Spring

And hope filled the air
My treasures were there

La, la, la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la
La, la, la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la

When I was young
The wind knew my name
Clouds would make castles and creatures with faces I'd dream of

The sweet-scented breeze
Was special to me
Kept in a place near my heart where I go when I'm sad

And hope filled the air
My treasures were there

La, la, la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la
La, la, la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la
