Lyrics

It was a long time ago
Some say it never existed
But I know that it did
The evidence is strong
And I used to live there

There were phone boxes on the street
And people carried real money
And not everyone you met
Was ready to tell you what they felt

A long time ago
A long time ago

And politeness was not scorned
People did not brag about themselves
They tried their best to help each other
Just like in a Hallmark movie
And I, I, I used to live there
A long time ago

I used to live there
A long time ago

(c) words and music G Todd 2025

Nice song. I like it all and agree with @spikedirection , definitely a Nick Cave vibe.

Hey Gordon! Great to see you back and as prolific as ever! Strong Nick Cave vibes for me on this one, really like it.
