Lyrics Mariah Carey – Long Ago

Once upon a time you whispered softly in my ear
Loving words and fairy tales that I longed to hear
I gave you my body and soul and you took control
As you slowly swept me up and carried me away

You told me pretty lies
As I held onto you tight
You knew how to get your way
Ignorance was bliss in your warm embrace

Chorus:
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it’s all so far away
But you still haunt me
And take me back to yesterday

Every now and then I drown in thoughts of yesterday
And the fool’s paradise that you blew away
I feel you beside me again and remember when
You came to my window on a dark and stormy day

Baby I need you now
‘Cause tonight I’m crumbling down
Sinking in the memories
Shadows of you keep washing over me

Chorus 2x

Baby I need you now
‘Cause tonight I’m crumbling down
Sinking in the memories
Shadows of you keep washing over me

Chorus
