Jim Croce
A Long Time Ago
[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Post-Verse]
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

[Bridge]
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
[Verse 3]
Wasn't very long ago
You said that you would like to share my road
Then you started singing my song

[Bridge]
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

[Outro]
We spent the whole night talking
But in the gold of morning
