lyrics

I always wanted to be like you
How I aspired to that ideal
Everybody could agree that you
Had a fair spin of the wheel

Golden lads and lasses must
As chimney sweepers, come to dust
But in the sunlit fields of my memory
You’re still a golden lad to me

Looking back upon the best of times
Days I would gladly live again
Older now, I feel blessed that I'm
A link in life's unbroken chain

The show was splendid
The crowd craves more
But we’re denied
A last encore

Hour by hour, day by day
Things come to pass then pass away
Seize the moment, breathe it in
We do not pass this way again
