Youth

Do you recall the things
 That used to give us joy?
 When our imagination
 Could take us anywhere
 In stormy winter weather
 We built a house of snow
 Do you remember how
 Everyone from town
 Used to go out skating?
 Oh, we had so much fun
 The lake was frozen over
 It looked as clear as glass
 And all the quiet nights
 When summer had arrived
 And we played Annie Over
 Unburdened by concern
 Appearing in my mind now
 Pictures from the past
 I won't forget the years
 When boundless love and joy
 Lived in our young hearts
 And smiled inside our chests
 This world that we created
 I'll never forget
 Do you recall the things
 That used to give us joy?
 When our imagination
 Could take us anywhere
 Appearing in my mind now
 Pictures from the past
