lyrics

LINGERED A LITTLE TOO LONG (SANDO)

SHE TOOK ME IN AT SUNSET WITH A PROMISE ON HER LIPS
WITH VISIONS OF TOMORROW PASSING THROUGH HER FINGERTIPS
THE MOON PULLED ON MY SENSES AND I WAS CAPTURED BY HER KISS
TRAPPED BETWEEN THE TWILIGHT AND THE DAWN
I HAD LINGERED A LITTLE TOO LONG

I LOOKED INTO HER EYES AND SAW THE UNIVERSE REVEALED
MY MIND WAS RESISTANT BUT MY HEART WAS FORCED TO YEILD
THEN THE DAYS TURNED INTO YEARS AND MY FUTURE HAD BEEN SEALED
THE TIME HAD COME AND GONE FOR MOVING ON
SEEMS I’D LINGERED A LITTLE TOO LONG

I WANDERED THROUGH THE FOREST AND I HEARD THE MORNING BELL
I PAUSED ALONG THE WAY TO DROP A PENNY IN THE WELL
I LISTENED FOR A MOMENT BUT I SWEAR IT NEVER FELL
AND LOSING TRACK OF TIME AS IN A SONG
I HAD LINGERED A LITTLE TOO LONG

LIKE A VAMPIRE IN THE SUNLIGHT WITH NOPLACE LEFT TO HIDE
OR A BIRD AFRAID TO MIGRATE A FISH SWEPT IN THE TIDE
I’M STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS UNABLE TO DECIDE
HELPLESS AS A SHIP CAUGHT IN A STORM
I HAVE LINGERED A LITTLE TOO LONG

AS I WAIT HERE IN HER GARDEN WITH MY BACK AGAINST THE WALL
THE COLORS FLASH RED AND GOLD AS THE SUMMER TURNS TO FALL
THE BITTER WINDS OF CHANGE THEY DO NOT BOTHER HER AT ALL
NOW THE SNOW GENTLY FALLS AND SHE IS GONE
I HAVE LINGERED A LITTLE TOO LONG

The original Gandalf album released on Capitol in 1969 has become a jewel of the psychedelic era. ... more
