Once When I Was Little lyrics

I was the one who would always jump in first

I didn't think twice to look behind

Got such a good feeling just from playing in the dirt

Once when I was little

We could build a rocket, fly to the moon

Leave Tuesday morning, be back for noon

And there wasn't nothing, nothing that we couldn't do

Oh, once when I was little, once when I was little

Yeah, I could dream more then

I could believed more then

That the world could only get better

I could be free more then

I could pretend more then

That this life could only show me good times

Once when I was little

There was a time when I trusted everyone

There was no place that I would not go

Spend all day on the hillside next to the barley mow

Oh, once when I was little, yeah, once when I was little

Yeah, I could dream more then

And I believe more then

That the world could only get better

I could be free more then

I could pretend more then

That this life could only show me good times

Once when I was little

I used to feel so strong

Even when they'd tell me, tell me I was wrong

That I can't live in a magic world

'Cause it's time for me to grow up

And I've got to live like the rest of them

Well, I know things have been lost

Oh, I could pretend more then

And I could believe more then

That the world, it would only get better

Oh, I could believe more then, yes I could

And I could pretend more then

That this life, it could only show me good times

Once when I was little

So here comes the next one, next in line

Stay as young you can, for the longest time

'Cause those days flew by

Like a breeze just passing through

Once when I was little
