The cats are sleeping here in the autumn sun. Your dog has flushed a deer and he`s on the run. And the coffee cup is cold and the morning`s feeling very old.
Fifteen months of time my man`s been gone. The second winter now is coming on. And our fates could all be worse But sometimes I still must curse my own.
And hello I wish you well where you sleep all in your cell.
As for friends I can`t complain, they`ve been good to me. The fire`s burning bright, they`ve left wood for me. And the roof has been repaired. And I thank them for the love they`ve shared.
You see, there`s really nothing wrong, I`ve just got the blues. Because if you give a damn you`re going to pay some dues. But if you see the game we`re in like I do, you know in time we`ll win.
And hello I wish you well where you sleep all in your cell.
So time give me a break of a week or more. My head is reeling and my back is sore. And the baby cries for me. And I think I`ll walk by the sea alone.
