I remember a time
Romping through the woods
Sun against our skin instead of clothes
When we felt hungry we would eat
When we felt glad we′d dance
And whenever we felt drowsy we would doze
It was so easy then
Never taking any stands
It was so easy then
Holding hands
I remember a time
When our fears could be named
And courage meant not refusing dares
I remember when we took such cares
To step never on the cracks
No, only in the squares
Or else we'd be abducted by the bears
It was so easy then
Never making any plans
It was so easy then
Holding hands
It was so easy then
Never making any plans
It was so easy then
Holding hands
And now we are grown
With debts and regrets
And broken hearts and sentimental schemes
Now every tender failure seems
To overthrow old dreams
Love can drive a normal woman to extremes
It was so easy once
Holding hands without a plan
It was so easy once
Holding hands
Just holding hands
