[Verse]
N.C. Am F
When we were young, how we could fly
G C G/B
How we could float along like summer winds and touch the sky
Am F
The world was ours, and how we dreamed
G C
Our lives were intertwined forever so it seemed
[Verse]
Em F
We made our plans, I'd be a painter or a poet
G C
Live in Paris, in a cheap hotel or garret
Am Dm G
And you would be my everything, my Muse
C G/B Am
Too wonderful to lose
Dm G E7
When we were young, so very young
[Instrumental]

N.C. Am F
It could have been, but so it goes
G C
It's the mystery of life nobody ever knows
G/B Am F
No "second shows", no "once again"
G C
We only turn a fleeting glance to what was then
[Bridge]
F
One small note of regret
G
It could have been and yet
C
We kind of lost our way
B7
From day to day
C
The years just faded away
Am
They had no time to stay
G F E7
Time will not wait for lovers' fanciful dreams
[Instrumental]

The world was ours, and how we dreamed

Our lives were intertwined forever - when we were young
