Long Ago by Herbs Lyrics
Long ago, was so long ago
Long ago, was so long ago
Close your eyes, imagine all those memories in your mind
Realise, the downfall of mankind has made you wise
Long ago, was so long ago
Long ago, was so long ago
Every day, I awaken to find you standing here by me
(Say it!) blast away, I don’t believe a single word you have to say, (woah no)
Long ago, was so long ago
Long ago, was so long ago
If I knew then, what I know now
It’s in my mind, in my mind, in my mind
Long ago, was so long ago
Now I know, that bygones will be bygones from now on
Live for today, keep memories in your mind they always say
Long ago, was so long ago
Long ago, was so long ago
Long ago, was so long ago
If I knew then, what I know now
It’s in my mind
(Was so long) in my mind
(Was so long) in my mind
(Was so long) in my mind
(Was so long) gotta go go
(Was so long) get-ago-go… woah
So long ago (was so long ago)
