Oh, I had a dream
That I was dancing 'round the fire
And out of the flames you appear
Oh, so striking in the darkness of the night
It was so long ago
So long ago
That you were in my world
You were the girl before the girl before the girl
You were the girl before the girl before the girl
When I'm out on a street
Sometimes I catch myself again
And I'm caught in a stare
Old shadows holding snapshots turn to bends
It was so long ago
So long ago
That you were in my world
You were the girl before the girl before the girl
You were the girl before the girl before the girl
And all you want
Is a ringing in my ear, a fading sound
That beckoning moved back
And all you want
But you never should have told me to let go
To let go
You were the girl before the girl before the girl
You were the girl before the girl before the girl
You were the girl before the girl before the girl
You were the girl before the girl before the girl
Whoa-oh, oh
