🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
Long ago, and, oh, so far awayI fell in love with you before the second showYour guitar, it sounds so sweet and clearBut you’re not really here, it’s just the radio
Don’t you remember, you told me you loved me, baby?You said you’d be coming back this way again, babyBaby, baby, baby, baby, oh babyI love you, I really do
Loneliness is such a sad affairAnd I can hardly wait to be with you againWhat to say to make you come again? (Baby)Come back to me again (baby)And play your sad guitar
Don’t you remember, you told me you loved me, baby?You said you’d be coming back this way again, babyBaby, baby, baby, baby, oh babyI love you, I really do
Don’t you remember, you told me you loved me, baby?You said you’d be coming back this way again, babyBaby, baby, baby, baby, oh babyI love you, I really do
