ray charles - i didn't know what time it was lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
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
and now i know i was naive

[pre-chorus]
i didn’t know what time it was
then i met you
oh, what a lovely time it was
how sublime it was too
i didn’t know what time it was
you hold my hand
warm like the month of may it was
and i’ll say it was grand

[chorus]
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 what time it was
live was no prize, i wanted love and here it was
shining out of your eyes, i’m wise
and i know what time it is now

[verse 2]
once i was old
twenty years or so
rather well preserved
the wrinkles didn’t show
once i was old
but not too old for fun
i used to hunt for little girls
up my imaginary gun
but now i am not for only one

[pre-chorus]

[chorus]
