Long, long ago, long, long ago;
Sing me the songs I delighted to hear,
Long, long ago, long ago.
Now you are come all my grief is removed,
Let me forget that so long you have roved;
Let me believe that you love as you loved,
Long, long ago, long ago.
Do you remember the place where we met,
Long, long ago, long, long ago;
Ah yes, you told me you would never forget,
Long, long ago, long ago.
Then to all others my smile you preferred,
Love, as you spoke, gave a charm with each word,
My heart remembers the praises I heard,
Long, long ago, long ago.
You gave your promise to come back some day,
Long, long ago, long, long ago;
Through the long waiting my heart seemed to say,
Long, long ago, long ago.
Now you have come, all my grief is removed,
Let me forget that so long you have roved,
Let me remember the way that you loved,
Long, long ago, long ago.
