Seems like suc

             
h a long time 

    
ago
            
I was walking 

            
down a lonely 


road
             
Getting tired 

             
of dreaming al

   
one
            
Like all the l

             
onely people I

    
 had known


             
Seems like suc

             
h a long time 

    
ago
            
There was no-o

             
ne who would s

       
hare my song
            
I was just a b

            
oy far from ho

   
me
            
But I became a

             
 man when you 

     
came along


           
We spent the w

         
hole night tal

king
             
You said you'd

           
 like to see t

     
he sun rise
           
But in the gol

    
d of morning
              
There was noth

            
ing that I had

d to touch you

So I just watc

and said to me

,
           
"The night is

ens me,

Then you start

             
ed singing my

You said, "So
