I Didn't Know What Time It Was Lyrics - When I Was Long Ago - Rebecca Martin

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 

And 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 

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 

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 

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
