I Was Old

Bryan adams

She left my dreams just out of reach

She left her shoes out on the beach

She left her footprints in the sand

She was a bird right in the hand

I met a girl that made me laugh

She left a faded photograph

I thought I heard a siren song

I sang along but I was

I was only dreamin'

Visions in my head

Talkin in my sleep

Turning in my bed

I met a girl that talked in rhyme

I met a girl who took her time

I saw the ocean in her eyes

I saw myself unrecognized

And all the stars up in the sky

Fell down like rain and made me cry

I held the world right in my hands

I held her close but I was

Life was so complete

But I was only dreamin'

Oh year
