been so long & it seems so funny
been so long since the dewdrop fall
been so long since i spent that money
been so long since your midnight call

so many years since i drove to austin
so many miles beneath those wheels
so many times have i got lost in
dazzlin' things my wild heart feels

been so long since your ten-page letter
been so long since my painful tears
been so long but i'm not much better
O the hard slow passin' of all those years

hope you're healthy & hope you're smilin'
hope you're in a real good place
so happy i could bask a while in
the warm bright glow of your shinin' face
