This Time Long Ago

[Intro]
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah

[Verse 1]
Golden pennies on the breezes creepin'
Falling softly while the trees are sleepin'
Tellin' secrets to the earth below
Here's a secret that the trees don't know
Burning kisses in the early snow
This time long ago

[Verse 2]
There's a letter full of last year's teardrops
Silver shadows hide among the treetops
Hear the laughter from another day
See a face about a year away
Hear the voice that whisperеd, "I can't stay"
This time long ago

[Bridge]
What a time to stop and cry
Beauty all around, but I
Can only see thе fallen leaves
That bring heart-breaking memories
That I should not remember
La-la-la-la, her gentle touch
La-la-la-la, the way she smiled
Meant so much to me

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Other loves might come and go
Stop awhile and say hello
But the only love I'll ever know
Was this time long ago

[Outro]
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah...
