Seems Like Such a Long Time Ago Songtext
von Jim Croce

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
It was nothing that I had not seen in your eyes, hmm


And 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
But 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 singing my song
We spent so many nights awaiting
Let′s not spend a moment's 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 talking
But in the gold of morning
Hmm-mm
