Lyrics

Long Ago

 

Baby you can run

But you cannot hide

You wanna have some fun

You gotta pay for the ride

Leave the house in the morning

Come back late at night

I can see it in your eyes

You ain´t doin´ right

 

There was a time when I wanted to be your man

I almost lost my mind tryin to understand

But that train left the station

That train left the station long ago

 

We used to laugh together

We used to sing

We´d stick it through bad weather

We played the queen and the king

The royal wedding

Was our private joke

I bought you that diamong ring

It broke to pieces in one stroke

 

There was a time when I wanted to be your man, oh yeah

I almost lost my mind tryin to understand

But that train left the station

That train left the station long ago

Long ago, long ago, long long ago

Train left the station long ago

 

Yeah, i sure wanted to be your man

I almost lost my mind tryin to understand

But that train left the station

That train left the station long ago

 

Don´t try the key no more

I´ve changed the lock on the door

Don´t try to sell your explanations

I won´t buy them like before

Who do you think you´re foolin

Who do you think you are

Who is the guy who stole your love, who cares

 

Baby, baby, sure wanted to be your man

I almost lost my mind tryin to understand

But that train left the station

That train left the station

That train left the station long ago

Oh long ago, long long ago…
