Long Long Ago - Sam Cooke

Tell me the tales that to me were so dear

And sing me the songs I delighted to hear

Now you are come all my grief is removed

Let me forget that so long you have roved

Let me believe that you love as you loved

And now do you remember the path where we met

Yeah, you told me you never would forget

Then to all others my smile you preferred

Love when you spoke gave a charm to each word

Still my heart treasures the praises I heard

Though by your kindness my fond hopes were raised

I know you’ve by more eloquent lips have been praised

But by long absence your truth has been tried

Still to your accents I listened with pride

Blessed as I was when I set by your side

Long, long ago

Long ago
