Cover of Carpenters‘ classic tune, which in its turn is a cover of a Delaney and Bonnie song.
SY keeps it tender while also adding the noise rock that made the band famous.
A few years earlier, the band had already wrote a song dedicated to Karen Carpenter.
[Intro]
Ah...
Ah...
[Verse 1]
Long ago
And oh so far away
I fell in love with you
Before the second show
Your guitar
It sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really there
It's just the radio
[Chorus]
Don't you remember you told me you loved me, baby
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you, I really do
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 2]
Loneliness
Is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait
To be with you again
What to say
To make you come again
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar
[Chorus]
Don't you remember you told me you loved me, baby
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you, I really do
Don't you remember you told me you loved me, baby
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you, I really do
