Jim Croce - A Long Time Ago lyrics
[Jim Croce - A Long Time Ago lyrics]
Seems like such a long time ago
I was walking on a lonely road
Getting tired of dreaming alone
Like all the lonely people I had known
Seems like such a long time ago
There was no one who would share my song
I was just a boy far from home
But I became a man when you came along
We spent the whole night talking
You said you'd like to see the sun rise
But in the gold of morning
Was nothing that I had not seen in your eyes
Hmm hmm
I was so afraid to touch you
Thought you were too young, you know
So I just watched you sleeping
Then you woke and said to me
The night is cold, it frightens me
I could sleep so easy next to you
Wasn't very long ago
You said that you would like to share my road
Then you started singing my song
Spent so many nights a-waiting
Lets not spend our moments wasting time
Because we have very far to go
I will go if you will take me
I have never had a lover
I am young, but I am so alone
We spent the whole night talking
But in the gold of morning
I was walking on a lonely road
Getting tired of dreaming alone
Like all the lonely people I had known
Seems like such a long time ago
There was no one who would share my song
I was just a boy far from home
But I became a man when you came along
We spent the whole night talking
You said you'd like to see the sun rise
But in the gold of morning
Was nothing that I had not seen in your eyes
Hmm hmm
I was so afraid to touch you
Thought you were too young, you know
So I just watched you sleeping
Then you woke and said to me
The night is cold, it frightens me
I could sleep so easy next to you
Wasn't very long ago
You said that you would like to share my road
Then you started singing my song
Spent so many nights a-waiting
Lets not spend our moments wasting time
Because we have very far to go
I will go if you will take me
I have never had a lover
I am young, but I am so alone
We spent the whole night talking
But in the gold of morning
