Children    It was more fun to be children    We just took life as it happened    Run through the days    Don't look behind    Over    Wink of an eye and it's over    What a surprise to discover    We were people ourselves    What kind of people did we want to be?    No answer ever came to me    I didn't sleep at all last night    Mom, I've come to you like yesterday    About today    Mom, I'm afraid    Hon, come and sit by my side    Listen to me    Words come so hard    But what my heart says I will give you    Because you are in love    Your eyes begin to open    As if you had awoken from a sleep    Because you are in love    You use imagination    And lose your concentration    When someone drops his name    You're back in his arms as always    Your daydreams work out that way    It's all just a trick your mind plays    The more love grows    The more it stays the same    (Same little girl who's frightened) But I love him so    (Same little girl who's sure) That she loves him so    (Sees with a woman's vision, knows what a woman knows)    Because we are in love    We reach for our tomorrows    And know we won't be lonely    In laughter and in sorrows    Where love abides    There is a place we'll keep our home forever    You and I    Because we are in love       (We know we won't be lonely in laughter and in sorrow)    Where love abides    There is the place we'll keep our home forever    You and I    Because we are in love
