The Kingston Trio
When I Was Young
[Verse 1]
When I was young and dreams were new
I loved a girl who looked like you
I saw her face in mountain streams
I lingered there and lost myself in dreams

[Verse 2]
But we were young and tossed away
Our precious love along the way
We parted strangers, thoughtless and free
And set our hearts to wander aimlessly

[Bridge]
But looking back somehow I see
How seldom love has come to me
And I confess that now and then
I think of her rememb'ring when

[Verse 3]
If I were young and dreams were new
I'd love a girl who looked like you
I'd hold her close if she'd agree
To love perhaps a boy who looked like me

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
