Generate meaning
1
Once I was young, yesterday, perhaps
2
Danced with Jim and Paul and kissed some other chaps
3
Once I was young, but never was naive
4
I thought I had a trick or two up my imaginary sleeve
5
And now I know I was naive
6
I didn't know what time it was
7
Then I met you
8
Oh, what a lovely time it was
9
How sublime it was too!
10
I didn't know what day it was
11
Then you held my hand
12
Warm like the month of May it was
13
And I'll say it was grand
14
Grand to be alive, to be young
15
To be mad, to be yours alone
16
Grand to see your face, feel your touch
17
Hear your voice say I'm all your own
18
I didn't know what year it was
19
Life was no prize
20
I wanted love and here it was
21
Shining out of your eyes
22
Once I was old, twenty years or so
23
Rather well preserved, the wrinkles didn't show
24
Once I was old, but not too old for fun
25
I used to hunt for little girls up my imaginary gun
26
But now I ain't for only one
27
I'm wise and I know what time it is now
28
I'm wise and I know what time it is now
29
I'm so wise and I know what time it is now
