LYRICS: M. Carey MUSIC: J. Dupri, M. Carey, M. Seal Once upon a
time You whispered softly in my ear Loving words and fairytales That I
longed to hear I gave you my body and soul And you took control As you
slowly swept me up And carried me away You told me pretty lies As I
held onto you tight You knew how to get your way Ignorance was bliss in
your warm embrace Long ago You used to want me Now it's all so far
away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday Every now
and then I drown in thoughts of yesterday And the fools' paradise that
you blew away I feel you beside me again And remember when you came to my
window On a dark and stormy day Baby, I need you now Tonight I'm
crumbling down Sinking in the memories Shadows of you keep washing over
me Long ago You used to want me Now it's all so far away But you
still haunt me Long ago You used to want me Now it's all so far
away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday (So long
ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So
long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) Baby, I need you now 'Cause
tonight I'm crumbling down Sinking in the memories Shadows of you keep
washing over me Long ago You used to want me Now it's all so far
away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday Long
ago You used to want me Now it's all so far away But you still haunt
me Long ago You used to want me Now it's all so far away But you
still haunt me
