Much Farther to Go

       Much Farther to Go

　　

　　New York is lovely in the winter time

　　All the sidewalks are white as snow

　　The buildings, all the people that pass me by

　　How the smile on his face says he's in love

　　

　　I took the train all the way to Brooklyn Heights

　　I remember when you took it there with me

　　We sat side by side and held hands for some time

　　We saluted the Statue of Liberty

　　

　　I have much farther to go

　　Everything is new and so unpredictable

　　I should just kick my heels together and go home

　　But I'm not sure where that is anymore

　　

　　Oh how I wish I could go back in time

　　To the night when I heard my mother cry

　　She held me in her arms and we talked for some time

　　And I sang a song her mother sang to her

　　And it goes something about paper dolls and what men prefer

　　Something about the cross and how her Jesus died for her

　　Something about love and how it's worth living for

　　I wonder does love like that exist anymore?

　　

　　I have much farther to go

　　I'm so confused I know

　　I should just kick my heels together and go home

　　But I lost my way when I lost you

　　

　　Sometimes I cry when it's late at night

　　And you're not there to lay next to me

　　Morning breaks and the sun warms my face

　　How I wish it was you warming me
