Long Ago And Far Away Lyrics - Taylor James

James Taylor 

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 and Sunday afternoon 

Like people on the moon I see are things not meant to be 

Where do those golden rainbows end? 

Why is this song so sad? 

Dreaming the dreams I've dreamed my friend 

Loving the love I love 

To love is just a word I've heard when things are being said 

Stories my poor head has told me cannot stand the cold 

And in between what might have been and what has come to pass 

A misbegotten guess alas and bits of broken glass 

Where do your golden rainbows end? 

Why is this song I sing so sad? 

Dreaming the dreams I dream my friend 

Loving the love I love to love to love to love
