When i was a child

I was reaching for the future
slowly floating in the blue
when i was a boy
i dreamed a dream of you
I danced upon the tree top
i drifted with the stream
when i was a child
i held you in my dreams
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh
oh-oh-oh ohhh
oooooooh
Once i was a soldier
in my castle strong
oh i stood so tall then
i could do no wrong
innocence and slumber
when i was a boy
I was walking with a stranger
he left without a trace
when i was a boy
i slept at heaven's gate
Once i was a soldier
in my castle strong
oh i stood so tall then
i could do no wrong
innocence and slumber
when i was a boy
Once i was a soldier
in my castle strong
oh i stood so tall then
i could do no wrong
innocence and slumber
oh, when i was, when i was, when i was
when i was, when i was, when i was, oh oh oh oh, ooh yeah
Once i was a soldier
in my castle strong
oh i stood so tall then
i could do no wrong
innocence and slumber
when i was a boy
Yes, you know and so i wonder
through it grows and grows
when i was a boy
i was a boy
i was a boy
