Childhood Sweetheart lyrics

[Verse 1]

Last night, I had a beautiful dream

Last night, in the wee wee hours, oh yes

Had a beautiful dream

Isn't about my childhood sweetheart

How true and real it seemed

I had dreamt we was walking?

Hand in hand, home from school

Yeah, I dreamed we was walking together

Hand in hand, home from school

Yeah, if it hadn't be for you darling

I'd broke my mother's rule

Yeah, you was only sixteen

So young and yet so fine

Yeah, you was only sixteen

So young, yet so fine

You said when youd finish school

Youd let me take and make you mine

Oh Yeah

Yeah, you had those same pretty eyes

Same sweet little smile

You had those same pretty eyes

Same sweet little smile

I had dreamed about the sweet things

We used to do, when you was a child

You were my childhood sweetheart

Love you now, and loved you then

You were my childhood sweetheart

I love you now and I loved you then

And when I'll leave you down the twilight

I'll go to sleep and dream again
