Shirley Temple Song Lyrics Love's Young Dream (Little Colonel 1935) Lyrics/Music Mackridge. Picture: Original Sheet Music cover

Oh! the days are gone when beauty bright
My heart's chain wove
When my dream of life from morn 'till night
Was love, still love

New hope may bloom and days may come
Of milder, calmer beam
But there's nothing half so sweet in life
As love's young dream
Oh! there's nothing half so sweet in life
As love's young dream
