You were reflection of the time
 'Twas all very selfish...
 Memories of nonchalance sublime
 Those times...

 But all those days have come and gone...

 The day that you left me...
 Caused me to search for what went wrong
 Your new liberation
 You burn your cup I filled at times
 So long

 But all those days have come and gone...
 The curtains rise on a new dawn...

 Long, long way
 To your heart again
 Long, long way
 Throw caution to the wind...
 Someday I could hold your hand

 We're older and wiser
 But your generation's revolution grow
 Stripped my security,
 And halted a sexual evolution
 Confusion.
 My apologies are in this song...
 Maybe you'll forgive me before long

 Long, long way
 To your heart again
 Long, long way
 Throw caution to the wind...
 Someday I could hold your hand

 The last time I saw you
 You were a reflection of the time
