lyrics

when i left Richmond, it was Christmas
the streets down town, were full of shoppers

and all around, i saw lovers
walking up and down, looking in shop windows

that was last year, now Summer
in another city, and there playing

o my love, my darling,
i've hungered for your
touch and time
goes by

so slowly
time can do so much
so much
so much
.....

i'm still missing,
the long walks on the beach
and those delicious

nights of love
and in the morning, we made pancakes

o my love, my darling,
i've hungered for your
touch and time
goes by

so slowly
time can do so much
so much
so much
