Testo:
Down by the lake
a warm afternoon -
breezes carry children's balloons
Once upon a time,
not long ago,
she lived in a house by the grove
And she recalls the day,
when she left home
Long good-byes,
make me so sad
I have to leave right now
And though I hate to go,
I know it's for the better
Long good-byes,
make me so sad
Forgive my leaving now
You know I'll miss you so
and days we spent together
Long in the day
moon on the rise -
she sighs with a smile in her eyes
In the park,
it's late afterall,
she sits and stares at the wall
And she recalls the day,
when she left home
(repeat chorus)
a warm afternoon -
breezes carry children's balloons
Once upon a time,
not long ago,
she lived in a house by the grove
And she recalls the day,
when she left home
Long good-byes,
make me so sad
I have to leave right now
And though I hate to go,
I know it's for the better
Long good-byes,
make me so sad
Forgive my leaving now
You know I'll miss you so
and days we spent together
Long in the day
moon on the rise -
she sighs with a smile in her eyes
In the park,
it's late afterall,
she sits and stares at the wall
And she recalls the day,
when she left home
(repeat chorus)
