A rainy day in April
Postcard in the mail
A picture of a sunset
Over boats in sail
There down in the corner
In writing I hold dear
Four words that made my heart sing
I wish you were here. It said…
I've seen this wide brown country
More places than I can name
I've crossed the land and back again
But I still saw your face
I've longed to get over you
God knows how I've tried
I'm just a lonely man still wandering
When I should be by your side
Things have been going slowly
Since you went away
The last words said still ringing
"Baby don't you wait"
You said you needed something
But what you couldn't name
And I thought that it was over
Til you called to say…
Chorus
I've seen the beauty of a red rock turning blue
I've meet so many people
But none of them were you
I've longed to forget us
No more will I try
This lonely man still wandering
Is gonna get back to your side
