I saw a man today who said he talked to you not so long ago I think a month or two As my mind raced back in time I prayed oh Lord don't let it show He thinks I forgot you fifteen years ago Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same why did he have to mention your name I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so Makes a mighty strong love to keep a man thinking of A girl he hasn't seen since fifteen years ago [ Steel ] I've got a lovely wife who thinks the world of me Promised her my love through all eternity I've tried hard to make her happy and so far she doesn't know I can't shake this thing of fifteen years ago Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same why did he have to mention your name I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so Takes a mighty long time to get a real love off your mind I know I've tried since fifteen years ago

Here I go again Up and down alone All my friends went home Years ago All my toys are broken and So am I inside mom The carnival has closed Years ago I'm a little boy No, I'm a great big man No, let's be a little boy For a little while longer Maybe an hour? No Steven We have to go back now Isn't that our mom calling? "Steven come home!"

It's been a long time since I walked through this old town But, oh, how the memories start to flow And there's the old movie house, they finally closed it down You could find me there every Friday night twenty years ago I worked the counter at the drugstore down the street But nobody's left there I would know On Saturday mornings that's where all my friends would meet You'd be surprised what a dime would buy twenty years ago All my memories from those days come gather round me What I'd give if they could take me back in time Oh, it almost seems like yesterday, where do the good times go? Life was so much easier twenty years ago I guess I should stop by Mr. Johnson's hardware store His only son was my friend Joe But he joined the army back in 1964 How could we know he would never come back twenty years ago All my memories from those days come gather round me What I'd give if they could take me back in time Oh, it almost seems like yesterday, where do the good times go? Life was so much easier twenty years ago Oh, it almost seems like yesterday twenty years ago

I'm brushin' up my memories My brain is like a camera It's showin' me some pictures of My life Among those photographs of mind An unforgettable image Can make me recognise your face To strike the balance of my life Is simply useless now for me My watch is always slow you know I'm weak You wanted me to be so strong I couldn't take a chance on you And now I know that I was wrong A real fool If I could buy the years I spent I'd put them in a money-box So I could live that time again With you I wasn't there to squeeze your hand When you needed me and now It's late to realise the price I've lost Then years ago All my life was just a video game Then years ago Remember Then years ago I was sure that I could buy the world Then years ago How strange is sometimes to recall Your mind can fly but you can follow 'Cause your body is not so free And I I'd like to know if you're in love If you just think of me sometimes But to my questions no reply It's too late

My hand is trembling as the key unlocks the door My legs are shaky as I walk across the floor My voice weakens as I call out I'm home Do my eyes deceive me or is my baby gone? Baby's gone She couldn't stand to tell me face to face And things just ain't the way they used to be Around this place Her perfume lingers where she once lay her head And I can almost taste the teardrops that she shed As she searched her mind and tried to find Just where our love went wrong But it's ended and it's over, and baby's gone Baby's gone She couldn't stand to tell me face to face And things just ain't the way they used to be Around this place Her perfume lingers where she once lay her head And I can almost taste the teardrops that she shed As she searched her mind and tried to find Just where it all went wrong But it's ended and it's over And baby's gone

My name should be trouble My name should be woe For trouble and heartache is all that I know Yeah lonely lonely blue boy is my name My life has been empty My heart has been torn It must have been raining the night I was born Yeah lonely lonely blue boy is my name Well I'm so.I'm so afraid of tomorrow And so tired, so tired of today They say that love is the answer But love never came my way I'm writing this letter to someone unknown So if you should find it and if you're alone Well, lonely lonely blue boy is my name Remember lonely, lonely blue boy is my name
