[Verse 1]
Now you're on my side
It's been a long time, been a long time
Must we tow the line
To the past, the past is fine
Where it's at
[Verse 2]
She gets up 'round 9
Plans the morning [on bed?] golden
Wrestle half the night
To fill the day
She casts an eye to a blue sky
[Chorus]
She said, "Oh my love I've been away for years and miles
I've lived as much as I could live in this young life
All I've got now is your ragtime song
A pocket watch and a promise to make a home
I'm too old, my bones are weary, and my hands are tired
I'm not what you're recalling from before but that's alright"
[Verse 3]
Rollin' under time
Watch the world pass by
It no longer cries
A winter time
Should we lose our way, we'll follow tracks
[Chorus]
I said, "Oh my love I've been away for years and miles
I've lived as much as I could live in this young life
And all I've got now is a ragtime song
A pocket watch and a promise to make a home
I'm too old, my bones are weary, and my hands are tired
I'm not what you're recalling from before but that's alright"
[Outro]
There's all this time
There's all this time
There's always time
Always time
