Long Ago

Long Ago A moonlit August night, was it long ago? You captured me with your glance I felt the heat of love grow You took my breath away Head over heels, as they say Summer romance began Without rules, without plan Was it so long ago? But now I feel despair Winter chill, it has filled the air Icy darkness is everywhere See my bitter teardrops flow Alone and helpless in the lonely night Without your smile to make my spirits bright I miss your arms that used to hold me tight It was long ago A cold December night- it's begun to snow I long for soft summer light Tell me, now where did it go? The trees look gray and bare Come back my love so fair Summer dreams, they have died I feel empty inside Where's my love long ago? I cry in the winter breeze Summer love trapped in frozen seas I am lost, stumbling on my knees See my bitter teardrops flow You broke my heart the day you said good-bye You stole my sunlight from a tranquil sky You took my soul, and still I don't know why It was long ago Yes, now I feel despair Winter chill it has filled the air Icy darkness is everywhere See my bitter teardrops flow Alone and helpless in the endless night Without your smile to make my spirits bright I miss your arms that used to hold me tight Oh, so long ago
