When I Was Young Lyrics

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west

and the day's 'bout to turn in to night

As I watch the sun drop over tall mountain tops

I feel lucky to feel so alive

Like a songbird in June proudly singing his tune

Hoping someday that somebody might listen

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west

It reminds me of when I was young

When I became your dad, oh I became a man

It's the greatest gift I'll ever know

Sweet baby girl you sure fill up my world

More than I ever could show

Like a fresh morning dew I am covered by you

Praying to God that you'll always be near me

When I became your dad, oh I became a man

You remind me of when I was young

Isn't it strange seeing your parents change

Yet somehow they still seem the same

They give you a life and hope you do it right

No matter their love still remains

Like roses in bloom that's how much I'm like you

Walking a path where your feet came before me

Isn't it strange seeing your parents change

They remind me of what I was young
