NB! play like this: 332010, not x32010
I was the one who would always jump in first
I didn't think twice to look behind
Got such a good feeling, just from playing in the dirt
Once when I was little
We could build a rocket, fly to the moon
Leave Tuesday morning, and be back for noon
There wasn't nothing, nothing that we couldn't do
Oh, once when I was little, mmm, once when I was little
And yeah I could dream more then, I could believe more then
That the world could only get better
I could be free more then, I could pretend more then
That this life could only show me good times
Once when I was little
There was a time when I trusted everyone
There was no place that I wouldnt go
Spend all day on the hillside next to the barley mow
Oh, once when I was little, yeah once when I was little
Yeah I could dream more then, and I believed more then
That the world would only get better
I could be free more then, and I could pretend more then
That this life could only show me good times
Once when I was little
I used to feel so strong
Even when they tell me, tell me I was wrong
That I can't live in a magic world
Cause it's time for me to grow up
And I got to be like the rest of them
When I know things have been lost, oh
I could pretend more then, and I could believe more then
That the world, it would only get better
Whoa, I could believe more then, yes I could
And I could pretend more then
That this life, it could only show me good times
Once when I was little
So here comes the next one, the next in line
Stay as young as you can, for the longest time
Cause those days flew by like a breeze just passing through
Once when I was little.
