That Was Forever Ago

Charley Pride · Pride of America [RCA Victor] [1974]

(Johnny Duncan)



Tonight it's been six lonely days

Since you called me to tell me we're through

To think just last week you loved me so

But that was forever ago.



I've cried all my tears, sure there's none anymore

My heart is empty and cold

The future is black 'cause I can't go back

'Cause that was forever ago.



--- Instrumental ---



Our yesterdays were filled with sweet dreams

What happened I'll never know

But yesterday's gone and I must go on

'Cause that was forever ago.



I've cried all my tears, sure there's none anymore

My heart is empty and cold

The future is black 'cause I can't go back

'Cause that was forever ago.



'Cause that was forever ago...
