lyrics

From Here to Okay
Gary Allison Furr


1. I was telling my favorite story when I heard a knocking sound
It was my neighbor. He said, "You'd best sit down"
I never finished that story. I'll never tell it again.`
The clock on the wall said 7:10.

2. I’m lost and so angry. She’s just sad all the time,
The shadows go with us everywhere.
Now and then for a while we still act like we used to,
But we still can’t move that empty chair.

CHORUS:
It’ll be a long time before we put it behind us
Please, just sit with me. There’s nothing to say.
Walk with me a while in the valley of grey
It’s a long way from here to okay

So thank you so kindly for asking about us
And for the fine food that you brought
But please take with you the reassuring words you offered,
It’s not easy answers I’ve sought

Some cope with a bottle, and others with a pill,
Some sit in a circle and pray for God’s will,
But nothing on earth fills the hole left inside
By a love that was once so alive.

CHORUS:
It’ll be a long time before we put it behind us
Please, just sit with me. There’s nothing to say.
Walk with me a while in the valley of grey
It’s a long way from here to okay

Gary Allison Furr-vocals, guitar, bass, electric guitar
