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
