Contextual Analysis of "time ago" in Lyrics

and i lost something

a long time ago

the only one i truly can know

i got these tears from a long time ago

different

we should have met a long time ago

see the river when it flows

hear the way the flowers grow

i remember back when you had no glow

i remember back when you had no foes

but that was such a long

a long

but that was such a long

a long

you used to kiss me

as we're introduced again

you used to kiss me

as we're introduced again

pictures of your mama

of people with each other

baby

feel your hand close beside me

all i see is black

you can't root that heavy load

start

woke up in a daze

start

woke up in a daze

start

Woke up in a daze

and he sure had a lot to say

i've led a soldier's occupation

start

we used to be friends

slippin' and-a-slidin' - peepin' and a-hidin'

slippin' and-a-slidin' - peepin' and a-hidin'
