Seems So Long Ago
Sat in the park just the other day
Saw little children about their way
The innocence mirrored in a little face
Took me back far away
Remembered when I was about that small
The park looked the same, but the trees seemed tall
Running and playing was my big concern
It took a while taking in it all
It took me back, far away
So long ago, to another time - another place
Seems so long ago -ah- long ago
I can see Mom and Dad and the house we had
Trees in the yard and how Dad worked so hard
Mom's great smile - how she wouldn't cry
All they did to make us grow
Love and strong - to not do wrong
Seems so long ago
