lyrics

Eleanor, I got some bad news today. The doctor told me there was a whole lot of hurt coming along the way. Well it’ll get my liver; it’ll get my lungs, it’ll crush that life we were dreaming of. Eleanor, I got some bad news today. Do you remember when we were young in ’68? See you were a few years older than me so I was nervous on our date. But it was the way you’d laugh that made me feel like this strange, odd thing, it could be real. Do you remember when we were young in ’68? Do you remember when we were young in ’68? I guess I always hoped I’d have more time. All the things we could have seen & done if I only were alive. But I bet the heartache & the medical bills will get me before the cancer will. I guess I always hope I’d have more time. I guess I always hoped I’d have more time. Eleanor I’ve got some bad news today. Just let them grief rights in so you can lower my body in that grave. Well please don’t let your life end with me; you’ll make a great mom one day you’ll see. Eleanor, I got some bad news today. Please don’t forget when we were young in ’68.
