Whispering wind came, uninvited
Looking for somewhere else to go
Here is a lamp I've left unlighted
Aren't you someone I should know

Memory's flame is soon ignited
Lighting my lamp with amber glow
Quietly, friends are reunited
Singing a song of long ago, la, la, la

Cry, cry for someone
Who just can't be happy
And be glad you can feel enough to cry
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/carole+king/song+of+long+ago_20275181.html ]
Younger than always, time descended
Bringing me brand new seeds to sow
Now that they've been a long time planted
What must I do to help them grow

If it had been as I intended
I wouldn't have the peace I know
Loving the people I've befriended
And singing a song of long ago, la, la, la

As it began, so I will end it
Singing a song of long ago
Loving the people I've befriended
And singing a song of long, long, long ago
