| Years ago I dreamt ot the lIfe I’d live
|
| Years ago I thought of the things I’d do
|
| Years ago I dreamt of the gIrl I’d love
|
| When I grew older
|
| To be a young man
|
| To be a grown man
|
| To take my place In the world
|
| Lory lory, lory lory, lory lory,
|
| Lory lory ohhh…
|
| I grew up went to work and left my dreams
|
| I grew up found that lIfe has hIdden sIdes
|
| I grew up tested thIngs wIth my own hands
|
| Then I met a young gIrl
|
| To share my story
|
| To love and marry
|
| And proudly carry to my home
|
| Lory lory, lory lory, lory lory,
|
| Lory lory ohhh…
|
| As years passed
|
| I learnt that love doesn’t fast
|
| As years passed
|
| I saw lIfe’s not what It seems.
|
| As years passed,
|
| I have gone back to my dreams.
|
| But my dreams grew sadder,
|
| And know I feel old
|
| My heart has grown cold,
|
| And the story’s told of my lIfe.
|
| Lory lory, lory lory, lory lory,
|
| Lory lory ohhh…
|
| Years ago, I had my lIfe…? |
| Of me
|
| Years ago thought luck be wIth me
|
| Years I was sure I could be happy
|
| When I grew older
|
| To be a young man
|
| To be a grown man
|
| To take my place In the world
|
| Lory lory, lory lory, lory lory,
|
| Lory lory ohhh… |
