From the recording A Different Place
I wrote this song after an intense conversation about what it was like to be ten years old. I remember putting reins on my bike and pretending I was Dale Evans.
Lyrics
I REMEMBER WHEN
Copyright 2003 By Jane Eamon
I remember when I was ten years old
Days were longer than and nights were never cold
We would walk to the water, to look for pirates’ gold
And I remember how we dived beneath the waves
Ever shell we found a treasure to be saved
And if you were the hero, I was Lois Lane
Chorus:
We had mountains to climb, horses to ride
We had spaceships waiting to take us to the sky
We built castles out of sand, ran to beat the tide
I remember I was always Cowgirl Sue
We’d ride our bikes, like Pegasus we flew
No one could catch us cause we were Little Joe and Sue
Chorus:
And I remember well now that I am old
Those longer days and the hunt for pirates’ gold
All those memories are stories to be told
Chorus:
