As of today you're far away
But I've got news that's long overdue for me and you
The reason that I call is just to tell you that I'm touring in the Fall
Well now it's June, but pretty soon
the band will be back out on revue, 'cause that's what we do
And every state we play will make only just a show or two away
And I know you'll be around
when we pull into your town
'Cause I know that all our time apart has really brought you down
Yeah
But now don't despair, when I'm finally there
we can do it all 'cause I can kiss you when I'm touring in the Fall
When we head East I'll know at least
that means I'm finally coming your way with each new day
And next thing that you know
you'll be standing right beside me at the show
And then it will feel so grand when at last you hold my hand
And you'll smile when I must leave again and say you understand
Yeah
Though I'd like to stay there's no other way
so I'll try to stall when we're together when I'm touring in the Fall
Oh baby don't you cry when I won't stay by your side
'Cause though it's sad to say I had to say I tried
'Cause you're who I adore and I wish that there was more
but the drive is 700 miles and sound check starts at four
Yeah
So we'll just pretend that it's not the end
I know not to cling
I hope I see you if we're touring in the Spring
