Johnny Mathis - The Complete Global Albums Collection

Young and Foolish (From "Plain and Fancy")

Once we were foolish children
Playing as children play
Racing through a meadow April bright
Dreaming on a hilltop half the night
Now that we're growing older
We have no time to play
Now that we're growing wiser
We are not wise enough to stay

Young and foolish
Why is it wrong to be
Young and foolish?
We haven't long to be
Soon enough the carefree days
The sunlit days go by
Soon enough the bluebird has to fly

We were foolish
One day we fell in love
Now we wonder
What were we dreaming of
Smiling in the sunlight
Laughing in the rain
I wish that we were young and foolish again
