Roy Clark Yesterday When I Was Young

Extract from Muppet Show Season 3 Episode 3 1978 Click on (cc) captions to activate English subtitles Lyrics : Yesterday when I was young The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue. I teased at life as if it were a foolish game, The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame. The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned I always built to last on weak and shifting sand. I lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day And only now I see how the years ran away.
