Song Of Long Ago — текст песни (Carole King)

SONG OF LONG AGO
by Carole King

Whispering wind came uninvited
Looking for somewhere else to go
Here is a lamp I`ve left unlighted
Aren`t you someone I should know?

Memory`s flame is soon ignited
Lighting my lamp with amber glow
Quietly friends are reunited
Singing a song of long ago, la la la...

Cry, cry for someone
Who just can`t be happy
And be glad you can feel enough to cry

Younger than always, time descended
Bringing me brand new seeds to sow
Now that they`ve been a long time planted
What must I do to help them grow?

If it had been as I intended
I wouldn`t have the peace I know
Loving the people I`ve befriended
Singin` a song of long ago, la la la...

As it began, so I will end it
Singing a song of long ago
Loving the people I`ve befriended
And singin` a song of long, long, long ago
