Long Time Gone Songtext
von Hooverphonic

Long forgotten city lights
Twinkling through the soothing night
This city feels abandoned
It′s part of our lives

The air is hot, it trembles
It carries ashes we can't see
This city feels depressed
A treasure without a key

Long time gone
Time is moving fast
History′s moving slow
Long time gone
Sometimes, it is better not to know

Long forgotten histories
Stories full of poetry
One day, we are happy
The next, we're really sad


Words are trembling in the air
Try to stick but mostly fail
Dyslexic hearts don't match
They can′t remove the veil

Long time gone
Time is moving fast
History′s moving slow
Long time gone
Sometimes, it is better not to know

Long time gone
Time is moving fast
History's moving slow
Long time gone
Sometimes, it is better not to know

Long time gone
Time is moving fast
History′s moving slow
Long time gone
Sometimes, it is better not to know

That long time gone
Time was moving fast
History was moving slow
