A Long Time Gone Songtext
von Electric Light Orchestra

Seems like forever and time left to spare
When I look out the window
And still you′re not there
You're a long time gone
Such a long time gone

Tearing down memories bitter and sweet
Smashing away ′til it's all obsolete
You're a long time gone (long time gone)
Such a long time gone (long time gone)
You′re a long time gone

Do I wonder why
Every day that I
Think about you still?
And I always will

Did so much for me
Now I think I see
This I do believe
Feels more like a dream


Looked at the weeds in the broken concrete
Before the bulldozers waltzed in and killed the old street
You′re a long time gone (long time gone)
Such a long time gone (long time gone).

Door steps that shone in a bright summer sky
Lay shattered and wasted since our last goodbye
You're a long time gone (long time gone)
Such a long time gone (long time gone)
You′re a long time gone

Do I wonder why
Every day that I
Think about you still
And I always will

You're a long time gone

Did so much for me
Now I think I see
This I do believe
Feels more like a dream

You′re a long time gone


Do I wonder why
You're a long time gone
You never did
You never said goodbye
You′re a long time gone...
