Long Ago & Far Away Lyrics - Indigo Girls

Long ago a young man sits 

And plays his waiting game 

But things are not the same it seems 

As in such tender dreams 

Slowly passing sailing ships 

On sunday afternoon 

Like the people on the moon I've seen 

Are things not meant to be 

Where do those golden rainbows end 

(where do the rainbows end) 

Why is this song so sad 

(why is this song so sad) 

Dreaming the dreams I dream my friend 

(dreaming the dreams I dream) 

Loving the love I love

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

To love is just a word I've heard 

When things are being said 

Stories my poor head has told me 

Can not stand the cold 

And in between what might have been 

And what has come to pass 

Are misbegotten guests alas 

And bits of broken glass 

Where do your golden rainbows end 

(where do the rainbows end) 

Why is the song I sing so sad 

(why is this song so sad) 

Dreaming the dreams I dream my friend 

(dreaming the dreams I dream) 

Loving the love I love 

To love to love to love

Where do your golden rainbows end 

(where do the rainbows end) 

Why is the song I sing so sad 

(why is this song so sad) 

Dreaming the dreams I dream my friend 

(dreaming the dreams I dream) 

Loving the love I love 

To love to love to love 

Whoa no no no no no
