Operator number please: it's been so many years[00:00:17]
Will she remember my old voice while I fight the tears [00:00:24]
Hello hello there is this Martha this is old Tom Frost [00:00:33]
And I am calling long distance don't worry 'bout the cost [00:00:40]
'Cause it's been forty years or more now Martha please recall [00:00:48]
Meet me out for coffee where we'll talk about it all [00:00:56]
And those were the days of roses poetry and prose[00:01:04]
And Martha all I had was you and all you had was me [00:01:13]
There was no tomorrows we'd packed away our sorrows[00:01:20]
And we saved them for a rainy day [00:01:27]
And I feel so much older now and you're much older too [00:01:42]
How's your husband and how's the kids you know that I got married too [00:01:50]
Luck that you found someone to make you feel secure [00:01:58]
'Cause we were all so young and foolish now we are mature [00:02:06]
And those were the days of roses poetry and prose[00:02:15]
And Martha all I had was you and all you had was me [00:02:22]
There was no tomorrows we'd packed away our sorrows[00:02:30]
And we saved them for a rainy day [00:02:36]
And I was always so impulsive I guess that I still am [00:02:58]
And all that really mattered then was that I was a man [00:03:07]
I guess that our being together was never meant to be [00:03:14]
And Martha Martha I love you can't you see [00:03:22]
And those were the days of roses poetry and prose[00:03:30]
And Martha all I had was you and all you had was me [00:03:38]
There was no tomorrows we'd packed away our sorrows[00:03:46]
And we saved them for a rainy day [00:03:53]
And I remember quiet evenings trembling close to you[00:04:08]
