Long Time Sunshine (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

(album: Pinkerton - 1996)

Sometimes I wanna pack it all up
Get on a bus and move to Vermont
Or Maine, or any of those states back East
That I remember
Sometimes I wanna go back to school
An East Coast college with some history
I'd be satisfied, I know
In the simple things

Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me

Sometimes I wanna build a house
With a woodstove or a fireplace
And in the middle of the living room
An old piano
Sometimes it don't seem so bad
To settle down with a good woman
And leave this lonely life behind
Forever and ever

Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me
Longtime sunshine
Longtime (time) sunshine upon me

Goodbye, friends, goodbye, my girl
Close my eyes as you fly away
Keep on going 'til you get someplace
Where you can truly rest

Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me
Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me

(Why bother?)
(It's gonna hurt me)
(It's gonna kill when you desert me)
(Blast off, up to the stars we go)
(And leave behind everything I used to know)
(Somebody's giving me a whole lot of money to do what I think I want to)
(So why am I still feeling blue?)
(Oh, Wuan and Dondo)
Why?
