It was a long time ago but it still haunts me
Well the good times are paying, but the bad times they come free
It's been a good few years in the lonely lane, but still it lingers like a stain
It was a long time ago but it still haunts me
I've got a hole in my head and it just won't let me be
But some days I'm happy, and other days I just weep
Well if I told you what I'd done that day, I know you'd never talk to me again
It was a long time ago but it still haunts me
All the time I'm hanging round, I'm dodging all the danger
I dream of days when I was young, and I was just a stranger
Now don't you worry yourself, cos your friend now lives in peace
Even though you had to bury all the evidence in the sea
They found his hair and his brains in an open bag, at the bottom where the wartime ship had sank
It was a long time ago but it still haunts me
All the time I'm hanging round, I'm dodging all the danger
I dream of days when I was young, and I was just a stranger
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me, yah yah yah yah yah
