Winter time was yesterday
A place not far from here
Spring just walked away
And summer's end is drawing near
I look back when we talked of now
It seems so far away
Things work out in ways
We can't predict from day to day
Take me to a place that I'll stay
I know now why I feel all right
To look back on before
Seemed to be on course
For what I knew would be in store
I laugh when I remember things
I know I'll laugh again
Nothing's really changed
From how we did things even then
Chorus
Oh take me to a place
Not far from here
A place that helped to make
It all so clear
I know it's where I'll go
When day's run into years
Take me to a place, so near
We used to watch the paint just fall away
And make our breaks on paper trays
Sing a tune about another day
The day has changed, but other things still stay
Oh take me to a place
Not far from here
A place that helped to make
It all so clear
I know it's where I'll go
When day's run into years
Take me to a place, so near
I look back when we talked of now
A place not far from here
I know that I'll be waiting there
A place so near
