She writes him a to see how he's doing She's stopped up for words on a pen she chewing The light from the window flows through her hair The pen on the page is the proof she still does care
'cause in the run the story's told And in the long run the young grow very, old
He sits in the park in the dark by his favourite His mind is all in a haze of how things used to be She him so far but then had to let him go He wanted one more chance at to let her know
in the long run the heat grows cold And in the long run the young very, very old
He doesn't do now, just sits by the window light His hair is so long and his face so white His heart feels a of the breeze that is blowing outside His eyes now see magic around him at most
'cause in the long run the story's And in the run the young grow very, very old
She walks in the morning, it's best before that time of day that seems closest to heaven She finds herself dancing and singing songs out Songs from her suddenly come around
in the long run the farm gets sold And in the long run the young very, very old
He's ready to go now, he's done his living He's gone where going, he gave what he's giving The thousand and one times, he (said? ) before The thousand and two times, (their ) growing thinner
'cause in the long run the story's And in the long run the young grow very, old
