I Didnt Know What Time It was - Gunhild Carling

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 in my imaginary sleeve

But 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

Now I'm wise and I know

What time it is today

Grand to be alive to be young

To be mad to be yours alone

Grand tosee your face feel your touch

Hear your voice say I'm all your own

I didn't know what time it was

Live has no prize

I whanted love and here it was

Shining out of your eyes

No I'm wise

And I know what time it is today
