[00:30.000]Caught in the middle
[00:34.000]Carol we're middle class
[00:36.000]We're middle aged
[00:38.000]We were wild in the old days
[00:41.000]Birth of rock 'n' roll days
[00:47.000]Now your kids are coming up straight
[00:51.000]And my child's a stranger
[00:54.000]I bore her
[00:57.000]But I could not raise her
[01:00.000]Nothing lasts for long
[01:04.000]Nothing lasts for long
[01:08.000]Nothing lasts for long
[01:13.000]Down at the Chinese Café
[01:16.000]We'd be dreaming on our dimes
[01:20.000]We'd be playing "Oh my love, my darling"
[01:28.000]One more time “
[01:45.000]Uranium money
[01:47.000]Is booming in the old home town now
[01:51.000]It's putting up sleek concrete
[01:55.000]Tearing the old landmarks down now
[01:59.000]Paving over brave little parks
[02:03.000]Ripping off Indian land again
[02:07.000]How long how long
[02:12.000]Short sighted business men
[02:15.000]Ah nothing lasts for long
[02:18.000]Nothing lasts for long
[02:22.000]Nothing lasts for long
[02:26.000]Down at the Chinese Café
[02:29.000]We'd be dreaming on our dimes
[02:33.000]We'd be playing "You give your love, so sweetly"
[02:41.000]One more time “
[02:57.000]Christmas is sparkling
[03:00.000]Out on Carol's lawn
[03:03.000]This girl of my childhood games
[03:07.000]With kids nearly grown and gone
[03:11.000]Grown so fast
[03:15.000]Like the turn of a page
[03:20.000]We look like our mothers did now
[03:24.000]When we were those kids' age
[03:29.000]Nothing lasts for long
[03:32.000]Nothing lasts for long
[03:35.000]Nothing lasts for long
[03:39.000]Down at the Chinese Café
[03:43.000]We'd be dreaming on our dimes
[03:46.000]We'd be playing
[03:48.000]“Oh my love, my darling “
[03:52.000]I've hungered for your touch
[03:56.000]A long lonely time
[04:03.000]And time goes by so slowly
[04:06.000]And time can do so much
[04:11.000]Are you still mine?
[04:17.000]I need your love
[04:22.000]I need your love
[04:26.000]God speed your love to me"
