Tommy Tutone - A Long Time Ago lyrics

I used to jump over the moon to get to the other side I wish I had a dime for all the times I tried I used to be a one horse show But that was a long time ago Somebody'd say something wrong; I'd want to take him outside Some girl'd look at me twice; I'd want to make her my bride I used to be a pistol, you know But that was a long time ago I'd be settin' on ready at the starting line Jumping that gun - trying to beat my own time Back when I knew everything that there was to know That was a long time ago I used to drive through the walls; I never drove around You set 'em up, and I'd knock 'em right down But I was riding in a rubber rodeo That was a long time ago We use to ride all night, and I'd let you off at dawn Then I'd keep on rockin' until the nest one I never shifted down into low But that was a long time ago Always setting on ready at the starting line Jumping that gun: trying to beat my own time Back when I knew everything that there was to know That was a long time ago That was a long time ago That was a long time ago Long, long long time ago Always settin' on ready at the starting line Jumping that gun; trying to beat my own time Back when I knew everything that there was to know I never told the truth when a lie would do I think I was waiting for someone just like you I'm getting tired of howling at the moon, you know We used to do that stuff: Way back a long time ago A long time ago That was a long time ago That was a long time ago
