Lyrics: Snowy White
Music: Snowy White
When I was fourteen years old, I was standing on a hill in the sunshine
The breeze was blowing off the sea, my whole life was waiting there for me
And I remember such a special sound, skylarks singing all around
When I was sixteen years old, I remember what my mother said to me
She said, youโre a good-looking boy, you find yourself a nice local girl and settle down
But I had another plan, Iโll be playing music all my life
Yes I had another plan, going to play some music all my life
Looking back across the years, I remember standing on that hill
I still hear my motherโs voice, and Iโm glad I made my choice
Yes I had another plan, going to play some music all my life
Yes I had another plan, Iโll be playing music all my life
