Mama they say the snow this winter |
|
Beat you to the ground |
|
But I'm a long time gone, long time gone |
|
Wish I could see the blazin' sunset |
|
Falling right into the bay |
|
But I'm a long time gone, long time gone * |
|
To dream the dream that's over |
|
To live and love again |
|
Oh my America |
|
And to be where my footsteps lead me over |
|
To be born again tonight |
|
I want to be there on our back porch |
|
Looking on down the road |
|
But I'm a long time gone, long time gone |
|
The troubles here, they pass me by |
|
I want to get home to you |
|
But I'm a long time gone, long time gone * |
|
Repeat Lonely days, lonely nights |
|
Caught up in someone else's fight |
|
I'm holdin' on, and you're so strong |
|
All I want to be is just holdin' you tonight [INSTRUMENTAL] * |
|
Repeat [Short instrumental] * |
|
Repeat and fade out |
