[00:08.96] |
Seems like such a long time ago, |
[00:13.63] |
I was walking on a lonely road. |
[00:17.68] |
Getting tired of dreaming alone, |
[00:22.08] |
like all the lonely people I had known. |
[00:25.99] |
Seems like such a long time ago, |
[00:30.88] |
there was no one who would share my song. |
[00:34.64] |
I was just a boy far from home, |
[00:39.25] |
I became a man when you came along. |
[00:43.36] |
We spent the whole night talking. |
[00:47.57] |
You said you'd like to see the sun rise. |
[00:51.78] |
But in the gold of morning, |
[00:55.31] |
was nothing that I had not seen in your eyes. |
[01:08.18] |
I was so afraid to touch you, |
[01:09.96] |
thought you were too young, you know. |
[01:12.09] |
So I just watched you sleeping. |
[01:16.26] |
Then you woke and said to me, |
[01:18.11] |
The night is cold, it frightens me. |
[01:21.13] |
I could sleep so easy next to you. |
[01:27.78] |
Wasn't very long ago, |
[01:32.19] |
you said that you would like to share my road. |
[01:36.06] |
Then you started singing my song. |
[01:41.05] |
Spent so many nights a-waiting, |
[01:42.92] |
Lets not spend a moments wasting time, |
[01:45.76] |
because we have very far to go. |
[01:49.37] |
I will go if you will take me, |
[01:51.22] |
I have never had a lover. |
[01:53.18] |
I am young but I am so alone. |
[01:59.92] |
We spent the whole night talking. |
[02:08.17] |
But in the gold of morning... |
[02:11.24] |
