Early Years

As I look back on the days that's gone by
I can't help but to think
"What would I have done different than I did at that time?"
And you know what conclusion I come to is?
The conclusion I've come to is I would've done it just like I did it

There was days of joy and happiness, sadness and madness
The normal, the normal way of life
And as I, as I sit here reminiscing through my years, I
Can't help but to feel a little sad inside

Because those days are gone
Forever and ever
And ever, and ever
And ever, and ever

Yesterday, we were so unafraid
But now, we need some time to slip away
As we drift in our memories of all the joys and tears
Tasting vintage wine of early years

We sit and watch our lives go passing by
And remember things we did, and wonder why
Looking through the misty cloud at days we had no fear
But that was long ago in early years

Time has gone by, time from our lives
Those early years of time gone by
Those early years gone from our lives
From our lives, from our lives, from our lives

Well, well, to appreciate your life, one has to know
Know the things it takes to keep your heart aglow
Keep your mind refreshed with thoughts of things we hold so near
Treasures from our lives in early years
