When I Was a Child
I was reaching for the future
Slowly floating in the blue
When I was a boy
I dreamed a dream of you
I danced upon the tree top
I drifted with the stream
When I was a child
I held you in my dreams
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Ooh
Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh, I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
When I was a boy
I was walking with a stranger
He left without a trace
When I was a boy
I slept at Heaven's gate
Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh, I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
When I was a boy
Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh, I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
Oh, when I was, when I was, when I was
When I was, when I was
When I was, oh, oh, ooh yeah
Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
Oh, ooh yes, you know and so I wonder
Through it grows and grows
When I was a boy
I was a boy
I was a boy
Slowly floating in the blue
When I was a boy
I dreamed a dream of you
I danced upon the tree top
I drifted with the stream
When I was a child
I held you in my dreams
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Ooh
Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh, I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
When I was a boy
I was walking with a stranger
He left without a trace
When I was a boy
I slept at Heaven's gate
Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh, I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
When I was a boy
Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh, I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
Oh, when I was, when I was, when I was
When I was, when I was
When I was, oh, oh, ooh yeah
Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
Oh, ooh yes, you know and so I wonder
Through it grows and grows
When I was a boy
I was a boy
I was a boy
