I was a child 
Who ran full of laughter 
I was a child who lived for today 
My eyes full of sunshine 
My heart full of smiles 
I was a child for a day 
We were the children 
Who sang in the morning 
We were the children 
Who laughed at the sun 
Who listened to those who spoke with their wisdom 
We are the ones we would say, but 

We're getting older as time goes by 
A little older with everyday 
We were the children of yesterday 

We are the men who worry of nothing 
We are the men who fight without aim 
We listen to no one, yet speak of our wisdom 
We are the pawns in the game 

We're getting older as time goes by 
A little older with everyday 
We were the children of yesterday 

I was a child 
Who ran full of laughter 
I was a child who lived for today 
My eyes full of sunshine 
My heart full of smiles 
I was a child for a day 

We're getting older as time goes by 
A little older with everyday 
We were the children of yesterday
