AI lived awhile withoDut you, Edarn near half my lifeF#m.
I no longer see our Dunborn children, born to Eyou my unwed wife.
But Dyesterday I had a Avision, beneath the Etree where we once F#mtalked,
of an F#mold couple burning Dtheir love letters so their Echildren won't be shocked.
[chorus:]
DLove calls like the Awild birds-- Eit's another F#mday.
F#mA Spring wind blew my Dlist of
Gthings to do...awaAy. My friends are gettin older, so I guess I must be too. Without their loving kindness, I don't know what I'd do. Oh the wine bottle's half empty-- the money's all spent. And we're a cross between our parents and hippies in a tent.
[repeat chorus] In a mucked up lovely river, I cast my little fly. I look at that river and smell it and it makes me wanna cry. Oh to clean our dirty planet, now there's a noble wish, and I'm puttin my shoulder to the wheel 'cause I wanna catch some fish. [repeat chorus] Children go to sleep now-- you know it's gettin' late. I know you don't like to miss nothin' and school ain't that great. Oh, I'll dance with you when you're happy, and hold you when you're sad, and hope you know how glad I am, just to be you're Dad. [repeat chorus] Darlin' it's been a hard go but I think we'll be okay. I know I say that all the time like everything else I say. Oh, I've been gone so often, but every time I miss you, and I don't really know nothin', Except I like to kiss you.
