January 23-30, 1978 |
Plane comes down on the old runway, home again for a week I’ll stay |
Hanging out like I used to do, hope to find some old friends I knew |
Hear the news in the honky tonk, who got married, yes, and who split up G |
Drinking beer while the jukebox plays, brand new songs for brand new days |
Quiet nights and empty streets, sleepy town, humble home |
Same old waltz in the wind, by the railroad track |
Riding out to a country bridge, moonlight shining across the ridge |
Frozen trees neath a billion stars, 7 friends jammed in Robby’s car |
High as kites and wild and gone, drunk as well and laughing loud |
Back at home I say good night (Good night) and I close the door |
Sunday morning the church bell rings, the organ plays and the choir |
sings. |
Where am I while the preacher speaks? |
Dreaming dreams neath |
my sheets asleep |
Waking up and trying to think, what went down, what’d we do? |
I rub |
my eyes and I shake my head and feel the sun |
Plane takes off on the old runway, snow fell light on the ground |
today Lost an hour that I gained before, headed back to my New York |
door. |
fare thee well, adios, adieu and best of luck to all of you I |
ain’t no saint and I don’t pretend to be, but I hope you all found a G |
friend in me |
ity lights blink and shine, down below, let it change |
It’s often said that life is strange, oh yes, but compared to what? |
