A Long Time Ago

And in the land where I grew up Into the bosom of technology I kept my feelings to myself Until the perfect moment comes Then into your bloodstream I will go Until I turn into a part of you Flooding the garden of delights That was a long long time ago That was a long long time ago It's not the ending of the world It's only the closing of a discotheque I used to go 3 times a week That was a long long time ago Yeah, that was a long long time ago And that roaring that you hear Is only the blood that circles constantly No, it is not applause, my dear No, that was a long long time ago That was a long long time ago In between stations I can hear A million possibilities It's only the singing of the stars That burned out a long long time ago They burned out a long long time ago --- A Long Time Ago - David Byrne
