LONG AGO AND FAR AWAY - Noon

Lyrics by：James Taylor

Composed by：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

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

To love

To love
