A Day Is Very Long Lyrics

frost leaves a sign on your window,
now you know the summer has been and gone,
you wonder when you'll see another one,
where did your sweet love go?

there goes the phone and the doorbell
old friends are passing on the way
people are stopping by just to say:
how are you today?

a day is very long
how long can you say?
how long anyway
a day is very long
how long can you say?
how long anyway
a day is very long

beneath the floor and the doorway
we found something buried in the clay
when they brought it out I looked away
been missing for so long.
old friend soul (???) was asking
have a thought on putting it all down
god forbid I shouldn't be around
one day myself (?) to tell them


a day is very long
how long can you say?
how long anyway
a day is very long
how long can you say?
how long anyway
a day is very long
