Way into the night
Over glasses of wine
By the pale moonlight
About lovers and friends
Hot desert sands
The songs of our fathers
And rock and bands
But as I looked in his eyes
I saw not a smile
Like a sea with no waves
Mile upon mile
A tree without leaves
A clock without hands
You see me and my friend
We’ve been talking
Our friendship goes back
To an ealier time
Kids growing up
Trouble and strife
Now misty old mornings
Toast with our wives
Simpler problems steadier lives
Chorus
With time on our hands
And with money to spend
Not counting the cost
Of time with a friend
Accepting the past
And with no time to lose
Now things that were real
Are just yesterdays news
So we sat and we talked Way into the night Over glasses of wine By the pale moonlight About lovers and friends Hot desert sands The songs of our fathers And rock and bands But as I looked in his eyes I saw not a smile Like a sea with no waves Mile upon mile A tree without leaves A clock without hands You see me and my friend We’ve been talking Our friendship goes back To an ealier time Kids growing up Trouble and strife Now misty old mornings Toast with our wives Simpler problems steadier lives Chorus With time on our hands And with money to spend Not counting the cost Of time with a friend Accepting the past And with no time to lose Now things that were real Are just yesterdays news Explain Request ×
