Lyrics: Great Big Sea. Long Life (Where Did You Go).

It's a long life,
This I do believe.
I never thought we'd see the end,
Maybe I was just naive.

On a cold night,
You can see your breath so clear!
I always thought that we'd be friends,
but friends can disappear.

Time is moving slow.
Where'd you go!
Rain turns into snow.
Where'd you go!

In a dark house
I tiptoe down the stairs.
Open the door and turn on the light
I hope I'll see you there.

Been a long time,
Since I heard you call my name!
The sun comes up and I open my eyes,
and the snow turns back to rain.

Time is moving slow.
Where'd you go!
Rain turns into to snow,
Where'd you go!

[Guitar solo]

You were long gone,
So far away from here.
All I can say at the end of the day,
is goodbye to another year.

Time is moving slow,
Where'd you go!
Rain turns into snow,
Where'd you go!

Time is moving slow,
Where'd you go!
Rain turns into snow. . .

It's a long life,
but I will not despair.
Open the door and turn on the light
I hope I'll see you there.
