When I Was Just a Girl (Carl's Waltz)

words & tune by
Carole Rose Livingston
(c)1992

1.

When I was just a girl, I loved you.
When I was just a girl, so long ago.
With all my heart I loved, with all my soul,
So long ago, so very long ago.

2.

When I was just a girl, we parted.
When I was just a girl, you said goodbye.
But deep inside, I never let you go.
I love you so, as much as long ago.

(Hum tune.)

3.

When I was just a girl, I loved you.
When I was just a girl, so long ago.
And still my love's a flame that burns and burns.
The world is ashes, and my heart still yearns.

Still my love's a flame that never dies.
The world is ashes, and my heart still cries.

La la la la la, la la.
