Childhood Sweetheart - Single Version

Last night, I had a beautiful dream

Last night, in the wee, wee hours, oh yes

Had a beautiful dream

Ain't about my childhood sweetheart

How true and real it seemed

I had a dream we was walkin'

Hand in hand, home from school

Yeah, I dream we were walkin' together

Hand in hand, home from school

Yeah, if it hadn't be for you darling

I'd broke my mother's rule

Yet he was only 16

So young and yet so fine

Yet he was only 16

So young, yet so fine

You said when you finish school

You let me take and make you mine

Oh yeah

Yeah, you had those same pretty eyes

Same sweet little smile

You had those same pretty eyes

Same sweet little smile

I had a dream of all the sweet things

You used to do, when you was a child

You were my childhood sweetheart

Love you now, and loved you then

You were my childhood sweetheart

I love you now and I loved you then

And when I'll leave you down the twilight

I'll go to sleep and dream again
