I Remember When 歌詞

A girl rode through the gate. She was two hours late. She got off her horse and her mother, of course, was standing there waiting, standing by the gate. "Where have you been? Don't you know it's almost ten? I've been so worried- you should have hurried- this better not happen again- better not happen again!" "Well Mom, ahem, uh-hum, I know I should have come home long ago, but you know I was having such fun riding in the sun." The mother huffed and puffed- she said "I've had enough, You must stay home and play alone for a week!" and her voice was guff. But Grandma was standing there and caught mother unaware. In a quiet voice she said "You know Joyce, you've forgotten something there don't you remember when?" Well, I remember when you were a girl of ten- you may not recall that you did it all when you were very small- but I remember when. So mother hugged daughter and daughter hugged mother and grandma smiled all the while and then they all sang this song. I remember when you were a girl of ten you may not recall that you did it all when you were very small, but I remember when.
