Carly Simon - LAST NIGHT WHEN WE WERE YOUNG lyrics

(E. Harburg/H. Arien)

Last night when we were young

Love was a star, a song unsung

Life was so new, so real, so bright, ages ago, last night

Today, the world is old

You flew away, and time grew cold

Where is that star

That seems so bright

ages ago, last night

To think that spring had depended

on merely this, a look, a kiss

To think that something so splendid

could slip away in one little daybreak

So now lets reminisce and recollect the size of the kisses

The arms that clung, when we were young last night

So now lets reminisce and recollect the size of the kisses

The arms that clung, when we were young last night

Last night, oooooh, last night, ooooooh, last night
