B.J. Thomas - That Was A Long Long Time Ago lyrics
Artist: B.J. Thomas
album: Only The Best
That was a long; long; time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
I remember the first that we ever met
It was raining and you were all wet
I offered you my coat
But you were too shy
You said, "I don't know you"
So, I better say, "bye", but
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
I asked, if I could walk you home that day
You said, "first meet Mom and Dad"
It's better that way
I met your Mom and Dad
And they were no fools
Why they had been raising you according
To old-fashioned rules, but
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
We courted for a year
And when we were ready
We went to the country
Said our vows and stayed
Two children later
We were still doing fine
Till the traveling salesman
Took me out of your mind, but
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
You were gone for almost a year
And every night, I shed a tear
And when you came back
You found our country life dead
The city life had gone
Gone to your head, but now
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
What happened to the sweet girl
That I used to know
The girl I married
Where did she go
I guess I'll have to spend
The rest of my life
Remembering the good days
When you acted like a wife, but
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
And I hardly recognize you now
I remember the first that we ever met
It was raining and you were all wet
I offered you my coat
But you were too shy
You said, "I don't know you"
So, I better say, "bye", but
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
I asked, if I could walk you home that day
You said, "first meet Mom and Dad"
It's better that way
I met your Mom and Dad
And they were no fools
Why they had been raising you according
To old-fashioned rules, but
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
We courted for a year
And when we were ready
We went to the country
Said our vows and stayed
Two children later
We were still doing fine
Till the traveling salesman
Took me out of your mind, but
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
You were gone for almost a year
And every night, I shed a tear
And when you came back
You found our country life dead
The city life had gone
Gone to your head, but now
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
What happened to the sweet girl
That I used to know
The girl I married
Where did she go
I guess I'll have to spend
The rest of my life
Remembering the good days
When you acted like a wife, but
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
That was a long, long, time ago
And I hardly recognize you now
