Change is what she said When she left me I laughed as she ran Cryin’ out my door
Time has made me see Misery has gotten to me I think It’s time to take her back Once more
Cause it’s the wrong time The wrong place The wrong way for me To tell her that it’s over (Repeat)
Something’s gotten into my way of livin’ Strange it seems each time I say goodbye I think of all the good she did in givin’ And loneliness has made me realize
That it’s the wrong time The wrong place The wrong way for me To tell her that it’s over (Repeat)
Easy like I’ve found my own sweet Heaven Discontent shown clearly in her eye Wish you call my name, I knew the meaning of a game Now I have no ???? for ??????
The wrong time The wrong place The wrong way for me To tell her that it’s over (Repeat)
So, what can I say but thank you, dear For sharing the few things you have Oh, I'd like to say, I'm glad you're here And hope my leaving is not sad Soon I'll have to go, get back on the road Then I'll have no reason left at all
In times it's hard to say the things I feel To wonder while I've known so long Oh, you still remain so sure and real Ev'rything is going wrong But soon I'll have to go, get back on the road Then I'll have no reason left at all
Oh, have you somethin' to say, say it for me, please Oh, have you somethin' to say, say it before I leave Oh, have you somethin' to say, say it from your heart Oh, have you somethin' to say, say it before I part
So, what can I say but thank you, dear For sharing the few things you have Oh, I'd like to say, I'm glad you're here And hope my leaving is not sad Yeah, soon I'll have to go, get back on the road Then I'll have no reason left at all
Oh, have you somethin' to say, say it for me, please Oh, have you somethin' to say, say it before I leave Oh, have you somethin' to say, say it from your heart Oh, have you somethin' to say, say it before I part ....
Oh, have you somethin' to say Oh, have you somethin' to say Oh, have you somethin' to say
The Sun is setting out in the tinted sky a lite-haired boy is crying wishing he could die. And his thoughts come a-rolling out of the sunset[s] [past?] And his tears are not falling the change has come so fast.
And round and round that memory goes there's nobody left to call And anyhow I'm feelin' sure there's no place left to fall
Love is just a kiss away There's nobody there there's nobody there, There's nobody there at all.
It was back when the years were growing (?) out where the days were young The sport was all in knowing the songs left unsung Now the music's all been written the words mean not a thing He’s left behind them rainbows and carousel brass ring
And round and round that memory goes there's nobody left to call And anyhow I'm feelin' sure there's no place left to fall
Care is just a tear away nobody cries nobody cries, nobody cries at all
Future's lookin' dimmer the past still lingers on And the pain becomes a-pleading _____ The wind blows around the collar Winter's against his face And Life becomes too heavy for the mind he can't erase
And round and round that memory goes there's nobody left to call And anyhow I'm feelin' sure there's no place left to fall
Life is just a breath away nobody's breathin' nobody's breathin', nobody's breathin' at all
I'll catch the tramline in the morning With your leave Van Bushell said He had further heard the cock crow As he stumbled out the shed
Then blind Joseph came towards him With a shotgun in his arms He said you'll pay me twenty dollars Before you leave my farm
Van Bushell saw the hook Which replaced Joseph's hand He said now calm you down my brother Let's discuss this man to man
It's no good you getting angry We must try to act our age You're pursuing your convictions Like some hermit in a cage
You're the son of your father Try a little bit harder Do for me as he would do for you With blood and water bricks and mortar He built for you a home You're the son of your father So treat me as your own
Well slowly Joseph well he lowered the rifle And he emptied out the shells Van Bushell he came towards him He shook his arm and wished him well
He said now hey blind man that is fine But I sure can't waste my time So move aside and let me go my way I've got a train to ride
Well Joseph turned around His grin was now a frown He said let me just refresh your mind Your manners boy seem hard to find
You're the son of your father Try a little bit harder Do for me as he would do for you With blood and water bricks and mortar He built for you a home You're the son of your father So treat me as your own You're the son of your father So treat me as your own You're the son of your father So treat me as your own
