There's a rip in the old screen door
And a crack I've never seen before
The floors are old wise and worn
From a thousand memories born
I sit down in my favorite chair
So many good times started there
Now it's time to repair
To recharge with love and care
Oh it's strange to be apart
A heavy longing weighs on the heart
And though right now they ride the wind
I know the good times will come again
We'll look back on where we've been
With a kinder wiser grin
When we're together from the start
We get one life one love one happy heart
I spend my life on the open road
Always longing to be home
Such a new change of pace
To meet life's humbling embrace
I sit down and I drift to sleep
Such a brightly colored dream
All together once again
Sharing laughter with our friends
Oh it's strange to be apart
A heavy longing weighs on the heart
And though right now they ride the wind
I know the good times will come again
We'll look back on where we've been
With a kinder wiser grin
When we're together from the start
We get one life one love one happy heart
So let us sing all the songs that we know
And share the melodies that bring us all hope
We'll sing a song on the breeze
And send it out across the sea
All together we will heal and we will grow
Oh it's strange to be apart
A heavy longing weighs on the heart
And though right now they ride the wind
I know the good times will come again
We'll look back on where we've been
With a kinder wiser grin
When we're together from the start
We get one life one love one happy heart
