Great Big Sea - Long Lost Love lyrics

rate me

I'd walk a thousand miles for you honey

I'd walk a thousand miles in the sun

I'd give up both my eyes if I could

Make you realize

So why can't you see that I'm the one

Wish I could buy a limosine

I'd fill it up and pick you up and

Drive you to your dreams

But when you get out on the highway

Life is seldom as it seems

And if the car broke down

You'd start blaming me

Moonshine bleeds into the dawn

Who am I to say for you what's right

And what is wrong

When your gone gone gone

The world will carry on

You're like a song song song

Who's melody is wrong

But its so so hard to say so long to you

My long lost love

Many a man has sold his soul for silver

Silver ain't worth nothing next to gold

Some believe that diamonds shine forever

But they offer little comfort when you're old

Can't take it with you when you're gone

Its the same end for the weak as for the strong

And if beauty is skin deep

Then why don't it come more cheap

And why can't you and I just get along
