A long time ago

seems like forever and time left to spare
when i look out the window
and still you're not there
you're a long time gone
such a long time gone
tearing down memories bitter and sweet
smashing away 'til it's all obsolete
you're a long time gone
do i wonder why every day that i
think about you still and i always will
did so much for me now i think i see
this i do believe feels more like a dream
looked at the weeds in the broken concrete
before the bulldozers waltzed in and killed the old street
you're a long time gone
door steps that shone in a bright summer sky
lay shattered and wasted since our last goodbye
you're a long time gone
do i wonder why
you're a long time gone
you never did
i never said goodbye
