It was a long time ago but it still haunts me
Well the good times are paid
But the bad times they come free
It's been a good few years in the lonely lane
But still it lingers like a sting
It was a long time ago but it still haunts me
I've got a hole in my head
And it just won't let me be
Somedays I'm happy
And other days I just weep
Well if I told you what I'd done that day
I know you'd never talk to me again
It was a long time ago but it still haunts me
All the time I'm hanging around
Imagine all the danger
I dream of days when I was young
And I was just a stranger
Now don't you worry yourself
Cause your friend now lives in peace
Even though you had to bury all the evidence in the sea
They found his head and his brains in an open bag
At the bottom where the wartime ship had sank
It was a long time ago but it still haunts me
All the time I'm hanging round
Imagine all the danger
Dream of days when I was young
And I was just a stranger
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
Haunts me
