Long Ago – Half a Sixpence

I was longing to tell you long ago, Δ

So long ago, Δ but how could I tell you? Δ
I was hoping to find that love would grow Δ
But now I know that that was a dream. Δ

It was not to be, Δ it was not to be, Δ

Games we used to play, Δ
Things we used to say, Δ
It was not to be. Δ

And now my head says I have to let you go,

My heart won’t though Δ
You’re mine as you were mine long ago, Δ
So long ago. Δ
