Mathis, Johnny - Young And Foolish Lyrics
Once we were foolish children
Playing as children play
Racing through a meadow April bright
Dreaming on a hilltop half the night
Now that we're growing older
Now that we're growing wiser
We are not wise enough to stay
Young and foolish
Why is it wrong to be
Young and foolish?
We haven't long to be
Soon enough the carefree days
The sunlit days go by
Soon enough the bluebird has to fly
We were foolish
One day we fell in love
Now we wonder
What were we dreaming of
Smiling in the sunlight
Laughing in the rain
I wish that we were young and foolish again

Mathis, Johnny Young And Foolish Comments
Not bad, but I prefer Tony Bennett's version (which contains the entire intro verse).
I love this of Johnny Mathis! Beautifully mesmerizing! Nostalgic!!!
Jo Stafford's and Johnny Mathis's renditions of this song are the only versions I think I care to hear. Extra kudos to Johnny for including the verse portion of the song which not many renditions contain.
