About the song
I wrote this song one night after watching a Bob Dylan documetary. It doesn't really sound like Dylan but that was the inspiration.
Lyrics
Years ago there was a radio
That used to play the songs we knew
Now I sit and listen to the falling snow
And I wonder what became of you
Sometimes I hear that story
Repeating in my ear
It was a long december but I still remember
The coming of a better year
And it may be a long, long time
Until the rivers all run dry
And it may be a long, long time
Until the stars fall from the sky
But I'll be there By and By
We knew that I was leaving
We knew this had to end
But we didn't know the way it would go
And I 'd never see you again
Time is gone and I've moved on
But it still hurts inside now and then
Of all the lessons I had to learn
The hardest was loosing a friend
And it may be a long, long time
Until the rivers all run dry
And it may be a long, long time
Until I find the reasons why
But I'll be there By and By
But I'll be there By and By
That used to play the songs we knew
Now I sit and listen to the falling snow
And I wonder what became of you
Sometimes I hear that story
Repeating in my ear
It was a long december but I still remember
The coming of a better year
And it may be a long, long time
Until the rivers all run dry
And it may be a long, long time
Until the stars fall from the sky
But I'll be there By and By
We knew that I was leaving
We knew this had to end
But we didn't know the way it would go
And I 'd never see you again
Time is gone and I've moved on
But it still hurts inside now and then
Of all the lessons I had to learn
The hardest was loosing a friend
And it may be a long, long time
Until the rivers all run dry
And it may be a long, long time
Until I find the reasons why
But I'll be there By and By
But I'll be there By and By
