              While in The USMC in California, one of my passes
         I went to DisneyLand and there on stage was (I never forget)
         Linda Ronstadt  w/Stone Poneys (early 70's)
              I was standing along the left hand side of the stage and
         she had already done a couple of numbers, when she walked over
         to where I was and looking directly at me (in my dreams) she
         sang this song.

     (I know she does it in the key of "D" so don't bother me about it)
(You guys n gals need to loosen up on this key thing it really doesn't matter!)
      (Whatever you feel comfortable singing in is the key to use)

      And Time

 Washes clean 

   Love wounds

 unseen That's

 what someone
      Told me but I don't know what it means

             
      Cause I'

g long Time

      Caught in my fears  Blinking back the tears  I can't say you hurt me
      When You never let me near
      And I never Drew   One response from you all the while you fell over
      The girls you never knew

      Cause I've done everything I know try and make you mine
      And I think It's gonna hurt me for a long long Time

      Wait for the day   you go away  knowing that you warned me of
      the price I'd have to pay
      Life's full of flaws   Who knows the cause Living in the memory of
      a love that never was

      And I've done everything I know try and change you mind
      And I think I'm gonna miss you for a long long Time

             
      Cause I'
