Lyrics
I've got too much on my plate Don't have no time to be a decent lover I hope it isn't too late Searching for the time that has gone so fast The time that I thought would last My ever present past I've got too much on my mind I think of everything to be discovered I hope there's something to find Searching for the time that has gone so fast The time that I thought would last My ever present past, hmm The things I think I did I did I, did I, did The things I think I did When I was a kid I couldn't understand a word that they were saying But still I hung around and took it all in I wouldn't join in with the games that they were playing It went by, it went by, in a flash It flew by, it flew by, in a flash There's far too much on my plate Don't have no time to be a decent lover I hope it's never too late Searching for the time that has gone so fast The time that I thought would last My ever present past, hmm The things I think I did I did I, did I, did The things I think I did When I was a kid, hmm The things I think I did I did I, did I, did, hmm The things I think I did When I was a kid Oh, when I was a kid
