Sweet Days of Youth

How fast have flown sweet days of youth
gone now forever more
unto that mystic far off land
that unfamiliar shore

Gone are the dreams and wonderings
those memories held dear
whose recollection brings us smiles
and very often tears

That I might find that distant shore
that land where dreams abide
and there I'll stay forever more
with you there at my side
