Once upon a time You whispered softly in my ear Loving words and fairytales That I longed to hear I gave you my body and soul And you took control As you slowly swept me up And carried me away
You told me pretty lies As I held onto you tight You knew how to get your way Ignorance was bliss in your warm embrace
Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday
Every now and then I drown in thoughts of yesterday And the fools' paradise that you blew away I feel you beside me again And remember when you came to my window On a dark and stormy day
Baby, I need you now Tonight I'm crumbling down (down) Sinking in the memories Shadows of you keep washing over me
Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday
Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday
(So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago)
Oh baby, I need you now 'Cause tonight I'm crumbling down Sinking in the memories Shadows of you keep washing over me
Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday
And take me back to yesterday
Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday
Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me
