A Number And A Name Lyrics - Linda Ronstadt

How many times have I read farewell lines 

In the things that you never seemed to say? 

How many times have I read those last lines 

And wondered why it ended this way? 

Words of goodbye and all those loving lines 

I must have been blind 

And it seems to me a shame that the number and the name 

Both have changed with the passing of time 

How you would write about the bright lights 

And your words always clouded up my eyes 

How you would write about the bright lights 

It's a wonder that I never realized

Our race was run now and another's just begun 

I must have been blind 

And it seems to me a shame that the number and the name 

Both have changed with the passing of time 

When your letters stopped the tears that I fought 

How they came in the flood of memories 

When your letters stopped the tears that I fought 

How they ran like the rivers to the seas 

Photos 

Each sunny day, you slip further away 

I must have been blind 

And it seems to me a shame that the number and the name 

Both have changed with the passing of time
