Too Many Years Lyrics - Singles - Kaukonen Jorma

I opened the door and I found I was looking at danger; 

It's been too many years but we're hiding our faces like strangers; 

She says that she's got to gobut there ain't no way; 

I'm letting her walk while there's something to say; 

It's been too many years, 

to watch our hearts die in this way. 

She's feeling a time for a seasonal change and she's yearning; 

To shake the trees of our love in the streets where the leaves are for 

burning; 

All things on this earth were made for the dying; 

One look in my soul says there just ain't no use trying; 

It's been too many years, 

to watch our hearts die in this way. 

In an unwritten time I thought that life was for sharing; 

And living together was simply a matter of caring; 

But things did not work out like I planned; 

and alienation has left me here damned; 

It's been too many years, 

to watch our hearts die in this way
