Where (When I was young)

When I was young,

when I was just a child,

where were all the friends I was yet to make?

Where were all the dances I was yet to dance?

And where were all the poems I was yet to write?

When I was young.

Where,

when I was young,

when I was just a child,

Where were all those endless summer days yet lived?

Where were all the tumbles and grazed knees,

and where were all those lyrics I had yet to learn.

When I was young.

Where,

When I was young,

when I was just a child,

where was that one that would steal my heart,

where was the one person that would change my life,

and where were all the great times that we would have together?

When I was young.

And where,

where was all the distress,

where was all the loss I would suffer?

Where was all the hurt,

where was the life that that would shape?

When I was young

For now here I am,

no longer young,

no longer a child.

Where are all the people I am still yet to meet,

Where are all the experiences I'm yet to experience...

and where are all the dances I'm yet to dance!
