I remember when I planned
To take the world by storm
I was young and foolish then
Like the world without void or form.
I planned to have my name in lights
To have someone chanting my name
I was young and foolish then
It seemed just a childish game.
But as time has flown and flown it has
My plans have gone astray
I was young and foolish then
But my dreams have still not gone away.
My age has caught me up I fear
No dreams to live for now; but wait
I was but young and foolish then
But didn't know what was on my plate.
