A Long Time Ago

A Long Time Ago - Jim Croce (吉姆·克羅斯)

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

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 role

Then you started singing my song

Spent so many nights a waiting

Let's not spend a 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
