Sitting on a stool at the end of the bar a pint of beer in his hand
A trappers hat a dog on his lap that would listen to his commands
Rolling a fag in the other hand and sharing philosophy
Step outside for a breath of air and to contemplate the scene
Gone too long,	Gone too long

Why use two words when one is enough he had a verbal economy
If he seemed quite dour that was just his way to retain his dignity
The surface was rough but underneath was a heart as big as one can be
If a shout went out he was up on that fell  rescuing casualties
Gone too long,	Gone too long

Wo oh oh it seems so sad and we miss them every day
Wo oh oh  what a good time we had we're glad they passed our way
Gone too long,	Gone too long

Over the hill by the side of the stream you'd find him camped by the track
His  favourite place in the whole wide world each year he'd keep coming back
A smile so wide you couldn't touch both sides and infectious energy
At the top of that hole you can find his soul a place of great beauty
Gone too long,	Gone too long


Thought I had no regrets but I guess I have one
I didn't get a chance to say goodbye
All the time we didn't meet there was always a chance to say hi
And then he said one happy day that tomorrow never comes
He said it once and said it twice
Gone too long,	Gone too long
