Once upon a time,
when I was but a girl.
I use to wonder what it'd be like
to live in a grown-up world.

To have my daddy give me away
To a man who'd be my spouse
To live so far from home
In someone else's house.

To have children of my own
About ten I would think
Running in and out
Calling "mom I need a drink"!

And call my mom every day
To ask her motherly advice
To have her hold my babies
A vision oh so nice

But daddy couldn't be there
he died before I found the one
who would be my mate for life
and for him his second son

My mother too soon left us
To be with her loving spouse
I wish to hear their voices
Ringing in my house

I don't have ten children
I'm blessed with only three
They're growing up so fast
And soon they'll be leaving me

Sometimes I wish I could go
back to those yesterdays
To sit under a tree
And dream about tomorrows
that have become todays.
