I was reaching for the future
|
Slowly floating in the blue
|
When I was a boy
|
I dreamed a dream of you
|
I danced upon the tree-top
|
I drifted with the stream
|
When I was a child
|
I held you in my dreams
|
|
Once I was a soldier
|
In my castle strong
|
Oh, I stood so tall then
|
I could do no wrong
|
Innocence and slumber
|
When I was a boy
|
I was walking with a stranger
|
He left without a trace
|
When I was a boy
|
I slept at heaven's gate
|
Once I was a soldier [etc repeated]
|
Once I was a soldier [etc repeated]
