When you were seventeen, we were in love
You'd hold my hand
Lived in your father's house
Spent our days playing in the sand
You with your lovely eyes
You with your skin, your lips to kiss
You were so patient then
I was so good, better than this
Gone, gone
Long time, oh, so long ago
Gone, gone
Long time, oh, so long ago
Now you've forgotten me
Ran away, found a new name
But I was wondering
why everything's changed as I stay the same
Sit in my lovely room
watching the clouds, sleeping 'til noon
Now I don't sleep so well
All of my dreams are tied to you
Gone, gone
Long time, oh, so long ago
Gone, gone
Long time, oh, so long ago
Gone, gone
Long time, oh, so long ago
Gone, gone
Long time, oh
