when i was a child - janis ian lyrics
when i was a child
the days whispered by
in a half*seen memory of an angel’s flight
people used to say *
you’ll be old before your age
my bitter laughter would ring out at them
once i was a child on the outside
now i am a child on the inside
sometimes i cry
i used to be a child
sitting by a stream
the night breeze shone on me
i swore to never leave
once there was a boy
a breeze flew past
through our laughter
now therе’s no time
for sitting by a stream
i’ve got othеr things on my mind
now there is no boy
i’ve left him in the past
along with my love
when i was a child
the days whispered by
in a half*seen memory of an angel’s flight
people used to say *
you’ll be old before your age
my bitter laughter would ring out at them
once i was a child in the daytime
now i am a child of the nighttime
sometimes i cry
i used to be a child
