I Didn't Know What Time It Was

Once I was young

Yesterday perhaps

Danced with Jim and Paul

And kissed some other chaps

Once I was young

But never was naive

I thought I had a trick or two

Up my imaginary sleeve

But now I know I was naive

I didn't know what time it was

Then I met you

Oh, what a lovely time it was

How sublime it was too

I didn't know what day it was

You held my hand

Warm, like the month of May it was

And I'll say it was grand

Grand to be alive

To be young, to be mad

To be yours alone

Grand to see your face

Feel your touch, hear your voice

Say I'm all your own

So I didn't know what year it was

Life was no prize

I wanted love and here it was

Shining out of your eyes

I'm wise

And I know what time it is now

Grand to be alive

To be young, to be mad

To be yours alone

Grand to see your face

Feel your touch, hear your voice

Say I'm all your own

So I didn't know what year it was

Life was no prize

I wanted love and here it was

Shining out of your eyes

I'm wise

And I know what time it is now
