If only we had met when I was young

You could have pulled the wool over my eyes

You could have taken me for a ride

If only we had met when I was young

*

Older and wiser, so it goes

The heart knows now

To look before it leaps

The mind knows now

To doubt each word you speak

*

If only we had met when I was young

You could have pulled the wool over my eyes

You could have taken me for a ride

If only we had met when I was young

*

Fool me once, shame on you

Fool me twice, though

You’ll never get the chance to

*

If only we had met when I was young

You could have pulled the wool over my eyes

You could have taken me for a ride

If only we had met when I was young

If only we had met when I was young
