John & Mary Beyond Love
Peer around the bend,
Couldn't be seen
I'd have thought it was,
Never will be
You told the other lie,
"It wouldn't be the same"
In spite of the warning voice,
"Today, oh, today"
You were wide awake
And starting the day
Sleeping at the wheel
I'm sorry to say
A dinner all alone
Could never feel the same
My hope is the other side,
Away, oh, away
Beyond love
Beyond love
Oh, now and then at times
I dream away
Clear and cool and light
And walking away
Dim lights the final round
In twilight come what may
I'm hugging the running boards
To stay, oh, to stay
Beyond love
Beyond love
Beyond love
Beyond love.
