Lyrics Petula Clark

Petula Clark

All Those Years Ago

I'm shouting all about love

While they treated you like a dog

When you were the one who had made it so clear

All those years ago

I'm talking all about how to give

They don't act with much honesty

But you point the way to the truth when you say

All you need is love

Living with the good and the bad

I always looked up to you

Now we're left cold and sad

By someone the devil's best friend

Someone who offended all

We're living in a bad dream

They've forgotten all about mankind

And you were the one they backed up to the wall

All those years ago

You were the one who Imagined it all

All those years ago

Deep in the darkest night

I send out a prayer to you

Now in the world of light

Where the spirit free of the lies

And all else we despised

They've forgotten all about God

He's the only reason we exist

Yet you were the one that they said was so weird

All those years ago

You said it all though not many had ears

All those years ago

You had control of our smiles and our tears

All those years ago
