William J. Hall, Lyrics 1979, Best Wishes

Best Wishes William J. Hall - January 11, 1979
	Dear Claire,
	1	Here we are: it's winter
	2	Christmas come and gone
	3	Stores still have their colored lights turned on
	4	Hear you're living somewhere
	5	Texas or the coast
	6	And I bet through all these years you're much the same almost
	7	Thought I'd write a letter
	8	Say I'm doing well
	9	Just checked in to this New York hotel
	10	But I can't find my paper
	11	Lost your last address
	12	And when it comes to writing, well, I'm just tongue-tied I guess
	13	I've been playing on the radio
	14	I've been standing in these late night spot light shows
	15	Keep me coming back
	16	Until it's time to go
	17	Can you hear me
	18	Playing with these friends of mine in the late shows
	19	Can you hear me
	20	Coming back and coming back until its time to go
	21	Lady luck really loves me
	22	You know she tries to understand
	23	Playing music in this blissed-out rock and roll band
	24	And when they're calling us back for more
	25	I think she see what we do it for
	26	You know, it's not just for kicks and it sure as hell ain't the money
	27	And my life, so good to me
	28	Rolling on down the line
	29	Maybe I'm crazy but I'm going to have a good time
	30	I'm going to rock my soul and make it warm
	31	I'm going to take this dream of mine by storm
	32	I'm going to make it shine like the stars in heaven symphony
	33	I see
	34	I could have told you
	35	What nobody else would have known
	36	It just
	37	Came down to me
	38	And I look back at how these years have flown
	39	OK
	40	Whatever we say
	41	We keep making headway
	42	But we're a long way from home
	43	We're a long way from home
	44	It's been a long
	45	Way from home
	46	Here we are: the new year
	47	Just around the bend
	48	Hope that you are looking good and feeling fine, my friend
	Best Wishes, Billy
