Seems like such a long time ago 
 I was walking on a lonely road 
 Getting tired of dreamin' alone 
 Like all the lonely people I had known 
    Seems like such a long time ago 
 There was no one who would share my song 
 I was just a boy far from home 
 But I became a man when you came along   
 We spent the whole night talkin' 
 You said you'd like to see the sunrise 
 But in the gold of mornin' 
 Was nothing I had not seen in your eyes   
 I was so afraid to touch you 
 Thought you were too young too know 
 So I just watched you sleeping 
 Then you woke and said to me 
 The night is cold 
 It frightens me 
 And I could sleep so easy next to you   
 It wasn't very long ago 
 You said that you would like to share my road 
 Then you started singin' my song 
 You said so many nights are waiting 
 Let's not spend a moment wasting time 
 'Cause we have very far to go 
 I will go if you will take me 
 I have never had a lover 
 I am young 
 But I am so alone   
 We spent the whole night talkin' 
 But in the gold of mornin'
