Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been loving you a long time Down all the years, down all the days And I've cried for all your troubles Smiled at your funny little ways [Verse 2] We watched our friends grow up together And we saw them as they fell Some of them fell into Heaven Some of them fell into Hell [Verse 3] I took shelter from a shower And I stepped into your arms On a rainy night in Soho The wind was whistling all its charms [Verse 4] I sang you all my sorrows You told me all your joys Whatever happened to that old song? To all those little girls and boys [Verse 5] Now the fun is nearly over We may never find out what it means Well, there's a light I hold before me And you're the measure of my dreams, the measure of my dreams [Verse 6] Sometimes I wake up in the morning The ginger lady by my bed Covered in a cloak of silence I hear you talking in my head [Verse 7] I'm not singing for the future I'm not dreaming of the past I'm not talking of the first time I never think about the last [Verse 8] Now this song is nearly over We may never find out what it means Still there's a light I hold before me And you're the measure of my dreams, the measure of my dreams
