(Remember The Days Of The) Old Schoolyard

in AlbumIzitso

Remember the days of the old schoolyard

We used to laugh a lot, oh don't you

Remember the days of the old schoolyard

When we had imaginings and we had

All kinds of things and we laughed

And needed love... yes, I do

Oh and I remember you

Remember the days of the old schoolyard

We used to cry a lot, oh don't you

Remember the days of the old schoolyard

When we had simplicity and we had

Warm toast for tea and we laughed

And needed love.. yes, I do

Oh and I remember you

You were my sweet love, my first sweet love

My lovey dove, my love lovey dove

No matter what place, whichever the place

I still see your face, your smiling face

In childish dreams, inside my dreams

Like King and Queen, God save our dreams

N'though time may face, though time may fade

It ain't never too late, to learn about love

Learn about love

Remember the days of the old schoolyard

We used to laugh a lot, oh don't you

Remember the days of the old schoolyard

When we had imaginings and we had

All kinds of things and we laughed

And needed love... yes, I do

Oh and I remember you
