Early Years - Barry White

As I look back on the days that’s gone by

I can’t help but to think:

«What would I have done different than I did at that time?»

And you know what conclusion I come to is

The conclusion I come to is: I would’ve done it just like I did it

There was days of joy and happiness and sadness and madness

The normal, the normal way of life

And as I, as I sit here reminiscing through my years, I

Can’t help but to feel a little sad inside

Because those days are gone, forever and ever

Yesterday we were so out of frame

But now we need some time to slip away

As we drift in our memories of all the joys and tears

Tasting vintage wine, our early years

We sip and watch our lives go passing by

And remember things, we didn’t wonder why

Looking through the misty cloud at days we had no fear

But that was long ago in early years

Time has gone by

Time from our lives

Those early years of time, gone by

Those early years, gone from our lives

To appreciate your life, one has to know

Know the things it takes to keep ya

Keep your mind refreshed with thoughts of things we hold so near

Treasures from our lives in early years
