[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
