Seems like such a long time ago
|
I was walking on a lonely road
|
Getting tired of dreamin' 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 talkin'
|
You said you'd like to see the sunrise
|
But in the gold of mornin'
|
Was nothing that I had not seen in your eyes
|
|
I was so afraid to touch you
|
Thought you were too young to know
|
So I just watched you sleeping
|
Then you woke and said to me
|
The night is cold
|
It frightens me
|
And I could sleep so easy next to you
|
|
It wasn't very long ago
|
You said that you would like to share my road
|
Then you started singin' my song
|
You said so many nights are waiting
|
Let's not spend a moment wasting time
|
'Cause 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 talkin'
|
But in the gold of mornin'
|
