Long Lost Love Lyrics

Great Big Sea Long Lost Love

I'd walk a thousand miles for you honey
I'd walk a thousand miles in the sun
I'd give up both my eyes if I could
Make you realize
Why can't you see that I'm the one

Wish I could buy a limosine
I'd fill it up and pick you up and
Drive you to your dreams
But when you get out on the highway
Life is seldom as it seems
And when the car broke down
You'd start blaming me

Moonshine bleeds into the dawn
Who am I to say for you what's right
And what is wrong
When your gone gone gone
The world will carry on
You're like a song song song
Who's melody is wrong
But its so so hard to say so long to you
My long lost love

Many a man has sold his soul for silver
Silver ain't worth nothing next to gold
Some believe that diamonds shine forever
But they offer little comfort when you're old

And you can't take it with you when you're gone
Its the same end for the weak as for the strong
And if beauty is skin deep
Then why don't it come more cheap
And why can't you and I just get along
