Lyrics Ancient Long Ago - Jonathan Richman , The Modern Lovers
I
know
a
girl
who
thrills
me
What
shall
I
say
so
you'll
know?
Well
when
I
think
i
her
I
get
memories
That
seem
like
they
came
from
some
long
lost
long
ago
Sometimes
I'm
in
the
wind
The
sun
And
I
feel
love
As
if
I've
known
her
From
some
ancient
long
ago
Her
smile
from
the
first
time
i
saw
her
Warms
me
up
With
its
glow
All
i
have
to
do
is
be
near
her
And
these
feelings
come
and
go
Sometimes
I'm
in
the
wind
The
sun
And
I
feel
love
The
kind
of
love
which
seems
like
it
comes
from
Some
long
lost
long
ago
I
am
not
bound
by
time
or
space
right
now
Where
I
want
to
be
I
can
be
Where
I
want
to
go
I
can
go
And
I
know
a
girl
who
thrills
me
And
I
can't
say
why
it's
so
I
think
I
once
used
to
know
her
In
ancient
ancient
long
ago
Right
now
i'm
in
a
garden
you
know
Overrun
with
high
grass
And
now
the
breeze
is
blowin
And
the
trees
are
swayin
And
the
branches
are
rustlin
Because
it's
falltime
Because
it's
autumn
And
the
wind
has
a
smell
of
roses
It's
haunting
it's
haunting
me
It
suggests
to
me
some
mystery
From
some
ancient
long
lost
long
ago
I
am
not
bound
by
time
or
space
right
now
She
might
as
well
be
not
far
away
She
might
as
well
now
hear
what
I
say
And
that's
I
know
a
girl
who
reaches
me
And
why
that's
so
I
can't
say
But
these
feelings
I
get
when
I'm
near
her
I
think
they're
real
Cause
they
stay
Sometimes
I'm
in
the
wind
The
sun
And
I
feel
love
Do
you
think
I've
known
her
from
the
past?
Do
you
think
I've
known
her
from
the
ancient?
Do
you
think
I've
known
her
from
some
long
lost
long
ago?
