[00:09.03] Fireflies inside of a mason jar
[00:17.53] Acting big behind the wheel of daddy's car
[00:26.16] Playing church around the old piano stand
[00:34.28]
[00:35.13] You were quite a preacher and oh we sang so grand
[00:42.50] I remember every night what we would say and do
[00:50.95] If you've forgiven me then I've forgiven you
[00:59.39] And now when life begins to get the best of me
[01:06.14]
[01:07.45] I reminisce these childhood memories
[01:12.61]
[01:16.20] We built a raft and traveled all around the world
[01:24.82] And stopped for penny candy at the corner store
[01:33.14] You let me fly your kite but when I dropped the string
[01:39.64]
[01:41.80] I thought my life was over but Mama rescued me
[01:49.92] When I was just a kid you taught my prayers to me
[01:57.30]
[01:58.24] Then you turned around and you told me about those birds and bees
[02:05.80]
[02:06.67] Come what may you've been endeared to me
[02:14.86] Because we share these childhood memories
[02:22.86]
[02:32.58] Well time it moved so fast those days are over now
[02:39.83]
[02:40.58] We've all gone our separate ways but still somehow
[02:48.02]
[02:49.02] I often need to telephone and talk to you
[02:57.33] To see if you remember things the way I do
[03:05.77] It won't be too much longer til we'll be old and gray
[03:12.95]
[03:14.20] And winding up our travels here on life's highway
[03:21.52]
[03:22.58] But no matter where I roam I've got you here with me
[03:29.77]
[03:32.77] When I reminisce these childhood memories
[03:57.39] Oooh
