Quite A Long Long Time Lyrics - The Statler Brothers

Perhaps the semi darkness of this room has me confused 

You say that you're an old, old friend of mine 

And if I'm wrong about you then I beg to be excused 

It's just that I have not seen you in quite a long, long time 

Or could it be the bottle that you're holding in your hand 

The girl I knew could never be that kind 

Please be patient with me, I will place you if I can 

It's just that I have not seen you in quite a long, long time 

The dimple in your cheek is familiar I'll admit 

And the smile does resemble one I've known 

And the color of your hair does remind me quite a bit 

Of someone within the shade of blonde is not just like her own 

Now I must go, it's getting late and I do wish you well 

And please go kind of easy on the wine 

It's possible I know you but it's really hard to tell 

It's just that I have not seen you in quite a long, long time
