I Didn't Know What Time It Was

I Didn't Know What Time It Was - Vicki Benêt

Once I was young

Yesterday perhaps

Danced with Jim and Paul

And kissed some other chaps

Once I was young

But never was naive

I thought I had a trick or two

Up my imaginary sleeve

But now I know

I was naive

I didn't know time it was

Then I met you

Oh what a lovely time it was

How sublime it was too

I didn't know what day it was

You held my hand

Warm like the month of May it was

And I'll say it was grand

Grand to be alive to be young

To be mad to be yours alone

Grand to see your face feel your touch

Hear your voice say I'm all your own

I didn't know year it was

Life was no prize

I wanted love here it was

Shining out of your eyes

I'm wise and I know what time it is now
