McMurtry
So get that hurt look off your face
No need to be alarmed
I was only trying not to lose my place
I didn't mean no harm.
This place we've come to it's a brand-new world
With a whole new set of rules
And I'm not complaining and I ain't enraged
Just a bit confused.
Would you be my friend through the ages ?
Watch the decades drifting by ?
And read to me from dusty pages
All the echoes of our lives ?
You'd fold the napkins, sitting on the stairs
Through the afternoon
I'd sit there watching till you'd stack the chairs
From across the room.
I kept your letters in my fire
Kept them safe and sound
And I read back through them once in a while
When there's no one else around.
Would you be my friend through the ages ?
Watch the decades drifting by ?
And read to me from dusty pages
All the echoes of our lives ?
Would you be my friend through the ages ?
Watch the decades drifting by ?
And read to me from dusty pages
All the echoes of our lives ?
