These Early Days
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're only two and the whole wild world revolves around you
And nothing's happened yet that you might ever wish to forget
It doesn't stay that way
If I could I'd make stay that way
And this you will recall in after years
Though you may weary of this vale of tears
These days remember, always remember
You're only two and I've no wish to worry you
So pay no mind to those who say the world is unkind
That's just something they've read
And if I could I'd strike them dead
And this you will recall in after years
Though you may weary of this vale of tears
These days remember, always remember
And honey, there's no rush
The world will wait for you to grow up
And this you will recall in after years
Though you may weary of this vale of tears
These early days, remember always
I hope you never change
I'll call you Jimmy, they call you James
Don't ever change
I'll call you Jimmy, they call you James
These early days
Remember always
