Is there someone who can understand
The things that he says?
And there was something he once said to me
A long time ago
Something I never quite understood
Something that seemed so strange

It seems a long time ago
Such a long time ago
And will things ever change?
No, things don't ever change

Distances mean nothing to him now
He can take his time
The faces all pass him by and he smiles
He pauses for a while
I stayed up late for you last night
I waited all through the night

It seems a long time ago
Such a long time ago

Distances mean nothing to him now
He can take his time
The faces all pass him by and he smiles
He pauses for a while
I stayed up late for you last night
I waited all through the night

It seems a long time ago
Such a long time ago

It seems a long time ago
Such a long time ago
