When I read the news today
Lying on the floor
Letters turned to yesterdays
And hid behind my door
And as I pealed and patched my hands
Songbirds began to whale
They're still chirping in my heart
While November shuts its veil
But your still
Such a long long way from here
Such a long long way my dear
I hope to see you again
In Novembers thin, thin, thin air
I've traveled on the foothills
While the warm rain 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 nights when you, were there
But your still
Such a long long way from here
Such a long long way my dear
I hope to see you again
In Novembers thin, thin, thin air
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
But need your love the most
My dear
My dear
My dear
My dear
