When I Was A Child Lyrics - Page & Plant

I was reaching through the future slowly floating in the blue 

When I was a boy I dreamed a dream of you 

I danced upon the tree top I drifted with the stream 

When I was a child I held you in my dreams 

Oh oh, oh oh 

Oh oh, oh oh, oh 

Ooh 

Once I was a soldier in my castle strong 

Oh I stood so tall then I could do no wrong 

Innocence and slumber when I was a boy 

I was walking with a stranger, he left without a trace 

When I was a boy I slept at Heaven's gate 

Once I was a soldier in my castle strong 

Oh I stood so tall then I could do no wrong 

Innocence and slumber when I was a boy 

Once I was a soldier in my castle strong 

Oh I stood so tall then I could do no wrong 

Innocence and slumber oh, when I was, when I was, when I was 

When I was, when I was, when I was, oh oh oh oh, ooh yeah 

Once I was a soldier in my castle strong 

Oh I stood so tall then I could do no wrong 

Innocence and slumber, oh 

Yes, you know and so I wonder 

Through it grows and grows 

When I was a boy, I was a boy, I was a boy
