"Golden Land".

>

> Verse 1:

>

> When I was a child and the world was bright and new,

> Life was like a game and I knew just what to do.

>

> Playing on the beach, throwing pebbles in the sea;

> Living for today, fancy free... Time drifted

>

> Bye, the child has grown,

> As a man wakes from a dream I look around...

>

> What has been lost?

> What has been found?

>

> Instrumental break.

>

> Verse 2:

>

> How the years have flown, since that child played on the beach;

> Careless pebbles thrown which the sea stole out of reach…

>

> Tides have ebbed and flowed and the dreams that I had planned:

> Like those pebbles, lost in the sand… Where are they

>

> Now - those golden days?

> Like the tune I used to whistle while I played...

>

> Inside my mind,

> The feeling stays...

>

> Tag:

>

> Golden land...

> Those childhood days...

> Inside my mind:

> Golden land!

>

> Verse 3: (optional)

>

> When I was a child and the world was bright and new,

> Life was like a game and I knew just what to do.

>

> Playing on the beach, throwing pebbles in the sea;

> Living for today, fancy free... I must have

>

> Slept - have I grown old?

> Wrinkled fingers turn the page, the story's told:

> Of lovers sweet,

> Of warriors bold...

>

> Tag:

>

> Golden land...

> Those childhood days,

> Inside my mind...

> Golden land!

>

>

>
