The shallow waters lopped upon the rocks, The shadows moved as the moon shone down, I saw your features as plain as the day. I heard your voice in sound of waves.
The mighty tides breathe in and out again, I heard the surf crashing closer, And in that moment you were there by my side, As if the years had never flown past.
(Chorus) That was a long time ago, I don't want to dwell in the past. That sas a long time ago, Now I must escape from your ghost.
The minutes pass, the illusion still holds, My fingers runnig down my spine, And iin the east I see the first of dawn. And with the light I feel you slip away
