A Long Time Ago

歌詞

You crossed my mind again today, I was out to get the mail I wondered if you think of me when you're riding the rails And I wondered if you cared at all, sometimes I don't know And I was hoping you could write to me from a long time ago I had that dream again last night, we were back in Chicago We were riding 'round and talking 'bout things you said I ought to know And you told me how hard life would be and I'm learning that it's so And I was hoping you could call me up at a long time ago I think about that summer night when you said you'd always care I think about this lonely life when your words turn cold in the air And now the winter's almost here You know that I would write a book but the story's seldom told Of a fool who'd go and walk the bridge back to a long time ago So here I'm stuck in Santa Fe in a trailer by the road With only dreams of yesterday and a long time ago I have only dreams of yesterday and a long time ago
