Hair Of Spun Gold Lyrics - Janis Ian

When I was just the age of five 

My world had just come live 

Wonderous things to see and be done 

All that I could think of was fun 

With hair of spun gold 

Lips of ruby red 

And eyes as deep as the deepest sea 

When I was just the age of ten 

My life had been changed again 

I threw away all my childish toys 

And worked on getting noticed by boys 

And when I was just thirteen years of age 

Going steady was all the rage 

My mother picked out the cutest boy 

My little leather-jacketed toy

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

And hair of spun gold 

Turned to black as night 

And the ruby red lips 

Turned to pale pink 

When I was fifteen years of age 

He had my hand in marriage 

And when fifteen years of age 

In my arms I held my babe 

And now I'm twenty-one 

And I feel my life's over and done 

And I'm looking down on my little child 

Wondering, wondering if she'll be so wild 

She's got hair of spun gold 

Lips of ruby red 

And eyes as deep as the deepest sea

When I'm looking down on my little child 

I swear she'll have the time 

There'll be time to love 

There'll be time to learn 

But childish memories she won't burn 

We'll find time to laugh 

We'll find time to play 

She won't have to throw her toys away 

I swear to you we'll wait for time 

To take its time
