When I Was a Boy

When I was a boy, I had a dream All about the things I'd like to be Soon as I was in my bed Music played inside my head When I was a boy, I had a dream When I was a boy, I learned to play Far into the night and drift away Don't want to work on the milk or the bread Just want to play my guitar instead When I was a boy, I had a dream And radio waves kept me company In those beautiful days when there was no money When I was a boy, I had a dream When I was a boy, I had a dream Finding out what life could really mean Don't want a job 'cause it drives me crazy Just wanna sing, do you love me, baby? When I was a boy, I had a dream And radio waves kept me company In those beautiful days when there was no money When I was a boy, I had a dream When I was a boy --- When I Was A Boy - Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra
