The Coral
"So Long Ago"


Up on Killdevil Hill
The Sand Dunes are still
It ends as it begins
December 1903
Buzzet on the breeze
Coils see the wind
I said it's heads or tails
Bicycles for sale
It's time to go
Now it seems so long ago
Now it seems so long ago

It was three days later
In a web of wires
Or so it seemed
Up on Killdevil Hill
The Sand Dunes are still
Picture the scene

I watched their plans unfold
In the morining cold
The world will know
Now it seems so long ago
Now it seems so long ago

If that's you over there
You can laugh, you can stare
Well I don't care

I'll just say heads or tails
Bicycles for sale
It's time to go
Now it seems so long ago
Now it seems so long ago

Now it seems so long ago
Now it seems so long ago
