(Words and Music by Joan Baez)
2
The cats are sleeping here in the autumn sun.
3
Your dog has flushed a deer and he's on the run.
4
And the coffee cup is cold
5
And the morning's feeling very old.
6
Fifteen months of time my man's been gone.
7
The second winter now is coming on.
8
And our fates could all be worse
9
But sometimes I still must curse my own.
10
And hello
11
I wish you well
12
Where you sleep
13
All in your cell.
14
As for friends I can't complain, they've been good to me.
15
The fire's burning bright, they've left wood for me.
16
And the roof has been repaired.
17
And I thank them for the love they've shared.
18
You see, there's really nothing wrong, I've just got the blues.
19
Because if you give a damn you're going to pay some dues.
20
But if you see the game we're in
21
Like I do, you know in time we'll win.
22
And hello
23
I wish you well
24
Where you sleep
25
All in your cell.
26
So time give me a break of a week or more.
27
My head is reeling and my back is sore.
28
And the baby cries for me.
29
And I think I'll walk by the sea alone.
