1970
3
As large as life she stood there
4
Kissed my cheek and called my old nickname
5
And though several years had passed
6
Both of us still looked quite the same
7
I said hi relaxed a bit
8
Then asked her how she'd been all these years
9
She told me she was feeling fine
10
Came to see a friend who lived up here
11
Told me she had finished school
12
And then went on to college for a year
13
I asked if she had married
14
Slowly down her cheek there came a tear
15
She said just an itchy eye
16
It must be the weather way up here
17
Told her I can't stand the cold
18
It freezes me and I can't feel my ears
19
We talked a bit about Mobile
20
And thought about how it has never changed
21
I told her I was a comin' home
22
To spend some time and hoped it wouldn't rain
23
She asked if she could see me then
24
And we could spend some time now and then
25
Because I lived so far away
26
Was still no chance why we could not be friends
27
I drove her to the waiting plane
28
Watched that big jet streaking through the sky
29
Thought about the sad young girl
30
And the time that I just saw her cry
31
That flame must still be burning bright
32
I think I'll catch a later flight today
33
It's time for me to go on home
34
And spend a day or two down by the bay
