Long Ago

Music & Lyrics by John Mikuska (copyrighted)

 

When I'm down, feelin low, and there's no place for me to go

I start thinking of the places that made me feel fine,

and think of the girls that I thought were all mine long ago, so long ago

When I'm out on the town, drinkin whiskey and hearing the sounds

I can't help but remember, how we sounded back then, with the dance floor filled with girls

and the bar full of men, long ago, so long ago

 

Well the years fly by so fast, that I can't help but think of the past

But I know I'll never be blue, when I think of the times that I said I love you

and the times that you said that you love me too, long ago, so long ago

 

As I sit here all by myself with my guitar upon the shelf,

I will never forget all sounds it would make

and think of the hearts of the girls it would break, long ago, so long ago

 

Well the years fly by so fast, that I can't help but think of the past

But I know I'll never be blue, when I think of the times I said I love you

and the times that you said that you love me too, long ago, so long ago

 

As I think and look back how did I ever fit into my hat, I will never forget all the times that I had

with my guitar, and my whiskey and the girls that were bad long ago, so long ago,

so long ago, so long ago
