SONG #40
4/5/95
    #40
This song teeters between being a request for love, and a reflection on a long love life with the standard ups and downs illustrated. Earlier versions were a beginning to love, whereas the later (and shorter) versions deal with a look back at a long love.

Tables turned again
On you, my friend
You and I face each other
All time and time out

I know it's sometimes hard
But knowing just
That we will get along
Until we're old and grey
And huddled up
And doubled up, we'll say...

And laugh of times were hard
Laugh of times when we thought all
Would end it all, it's over
And then again

And though all I know is this way
And to leave you
Well, I'd die
Oh, my friend
It will be you until the end with me, always

Always...
