It just started raining I hear children playing We're waiting, we'll be eating soon
The woodstove is burning My typewriter's learning The only thing missing is you
I couldn't say So sat down to write it instead I'm afraid If you stay away I might forget Stop being dead
I'm thinking my buying An old house and trying to fix it I could use some help
A home with a garden They say it's a bargain But I, I can't do it myself
I couldn't say So sat down to write it instead I'm afraid If you stay away I might forget Stop being dead
When will you arrive I get in my car and drive To wherever you are Call me on the phone It's taking way too long Way too long
I couldn't say So sat down to write it instead I'm afraid If you stay away I might forget So sat down and write it instead I'm afraid If you stay away I might forget Stop being dead
It just started raining Your grandkids are playing We're waiting, we'll be eating soon
The woodstove is burning My typewriter's learning The only thing missing is you
I got two of my own And the third one is born in November You would be proud of me
So much has changed since you left It feels strange It's already 1983
