Dave Cousins - When You Were A Child lyrics

Cousins When you were a child you were a friend of mine And I loved you in my way But though we grew apart, and I lost touch with you It still seems like yesterday I haven't seen you in a long time Oh, but I bet you look the same way you always did When you were a child you were a friend of mine And I loved you in my way. When you were a child you used to paint for me And I loved you in my way In time the paintings faded and were set aside They have now been thrown away I haven't seen you in a long time Oh but I bet you look the same way you always did When you were a child you used to paint for me And I loved you in my way. When you were a child you used to laugh for me And I loved you in my way But as the laughs turned silver they cost too much You were far too grown to play Though I hadn't seen you in a long time Oh I just knew you'd look the same way you always did When you were a child you used to laugh for me And I loved you in my way.
