[Verse 1]
When I read the news today
Lying on my floor
Letters turned yesterdays
And I looked upon their shores
And as I pealed and patched my hands
Songbirds began to wail
They're still chirping in my heart
While November shuts its veil
But your still
[Chorus]
Such a long, long way from here
A long, long way my dear
I hope to see you again
In November's thin, thin, thin, thin air
[Verse 2]
I've traveled on the foothills
While the warm wind filled my shoes
And laid my weary head to rest
Beneath the yellow moon
Hard times come and go again
You know I've had my share, darlin'
Had my share of better days
When you were there
But your still
[Chorus]
Such a long, long way from here
A long, long way my dear
I hope to see you again
In November's thin, thin, thin, thin air
[Bridge]
I will bare it now
Oh, I've done it before
These days I'm coming back to you
I've been traveling coast to coast
And I need your love the most, my dear
My dear
My dear
My dear
