The first time I met you

 Your eyes shining brightly

 I’ll never forget that glance and your smile

 We sat on the floor

 Talked five hours or more

 When the sun rose at seven we kissed for a while

And it’s long gone that we shared our lives

And it’s long gone that I met you

Well it’s long gone that you said you love me

 But now it’s time to forget you

 That night was a mild one

 The best day of summer

 A bottle of wine and your head on my chest

 A warm wind was blowing

 When the sun started glowing

 You told me you’re going and wished me the best

 I couldn’t forget you

 That night and our closeness

 For me it just seemed I’d known you for years

 In a hundred miles distance

 I felt your existence

 So far from my home I knew you were here

And it’s long gone that we shared our lives

And it’s long gone that I met you

Well it’s long gone that you said you love me

 But now it’s time to forget you

 Time went by slowly

 My mind was still covered

 With thoughts about you and this wonderful day

 Sometimes I came down

 To your beautiful town

 We met for coffee, you asked me to stay

 It took some more years

 Till we got together

 A long time not knowing and things kept on going

 In the end we succeeded

 It was you that I needed

 We found each other, got finally near

And it’s long gone that we shared our lives

And it’s long gone that I met you

Well it’s long gone that you said you love me

 But now it’s time to forget you

It’s all right, we went different ways

I don’t feel any sorrow

And it’s all right what happened those days

 But I hope I won’t meet you tomorrow

 It’s easy to think

 That the hearts of two ramblers

 Would fit to each other like one and another

 But living your dreams

 So far as it seems

 Is likely to hurt your lover’s esteem

And it’s long gone that we shared our lives

And it’s long gone that I met you

Well it’s long gone that you said you love me

 But now it’s time to forget you

Now you’re far gone, I don’t know where you living

Surely I won’t await you

You’re far gone, not a damn I am giving

 I loved you once but now I hate you
