Once upon a time you whispered softly in my ear
Loving words and fairytales, that I longed to hear
I gave you my body and soul
And you took control
As you slowly swept me up and carried me away

You told me pretty lies
As I held onto you tight
You knew how to get your way
Ignorance was bliss in your warm embrace, yeah

1 - Long ago
You used to want me
Now it´s all so far away
But you still haunt me
And take me back to yesterday

Every now and then I drown in thoughts of yesterday
And the fools´ paradise that you blew away
I feel you beside me again and remember when
You came to my window on a dark and stormy day

Baby, I need you now (right now)
Tonight I´m crumbling down (down)
Sinking in the memories
Shadows of you keep washing over me

Long ago
You used to want me
Now it´s all so far away
But you still haunt me
(You still haunt me, you still haunt me)
(Yes, you do baby)

Repeat 1

So long ago... (8x)

And oh, oh, oh
Baby, I need you now
Oh, I need you right now boy
Cuz tonight I´m crumbling down (yeah)
Sinking in the memories
Shadows of you keep washing over me, hey hey

Repeat 1

Long ago (so long)
You used to want me (so long)
Now it´s all so far away (tonight I´m crumblin´ down)
But you still haunt me (you do, you do, you do, you do)

Long ago
(Once upon a time you came along)
You used to want me
(And you whispered softly in my ear)
Now it´s all so far away
(Loving words and all those fairytales)
But you still haunt me...
