When I was just the age of five
My world had just come live
Wonderous things to see and be done
All that I could think of was fun
With hair of spun gold
Lips of ruby red
And eyes as deep as the deepest sea
When I was just the age of ten
My life had been changed again
I threw away all my childish toys
And worked on getting noticed by boys
And when I was just thirteen years of age
Going steady was all the rage
My mother picked out the cutest boy
My little leather-jacketed toy
And hair of spun gold
Turned to black as night
And the ruby red lips
Turned to pale pink
When I was fifteen years of age
He had my hand in marriage
And when fifteen years of age
In my arms I held my babe
And now I'm twenty-one
And I feel my life's over and done
And I'm looking down on my little child
Wondering, wondering if she'll be so wild
She's got hair of spun gold
Lips of ruby red
And eyes as deep as the deepest sea
When I'm looking down on my little child
I swear she'll have the time
There'll be time to love
There'll be time to learn
But childish memories she won't burn
We'll find time to laugh
We'll find time to play
She won't have to throw her toys away
I swear to you we'll wait for time
To take its time
