A Ragtime Song -

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

She gets up round 9

Plans the morning

Oh that golden

Rest you’ll have tonight

Feel the day

She casts an eye

To a blue sky

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.»

Oh then under time

Watch the world pass by

It no longer cries

Winter time

Should we lose our way

We’ll follow tracks

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

There’s all this time

There’s all this time

There’s always time

Always time
