Long Before Songtext
oh i think you're lost to me
just a stranger i will never see
i drove away yeah i walked out that door
but you had left us long before

the year we spent there was strange and slow
like all the cars in that rare southern snow
we ventured out without a plan or fear
probably not a great idea
it's not about the things i wanted then
i've come to see now that i could'nt have used them
all the same it's true that even now
i'd like to talk to you somehow

i'd wanna find out if you've heard that song
i'd wanna tell you mine are coming along
your family's well and healthy i suppose
i'm really curious to know

in the dimness of those last day's gloom
while i was packing up the spare bedroom
you came and offered me a solemn word
about a voice you'd often heard

it was a moment when i saw inside
a little break from all that stoic pride
do i think know that this would ring a bell
you know i couldn't even tell you
oh my friend you're lost to me
just a stranger i will never see
oh my friend you're lost to me
another stranger i will never see”
