Lyrics

<span begin="9.508" end="14.339">It's been too long stranger</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="11.650" end="16.178">(It's been too long stranger)</span></span>
<span begin="17.600" end="22.316">Guess even hard times fly</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="19.557" end="25.672">(Guess even hard times fly)</span></span>
<span begin="25.672" end="29.338">And leave us speechless</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="27.983" end="30.178">(leave us speechless)</span></span>
In the darkness
Before the dawn
<span begin="44.060" end="49.007">Are you hanging in there?</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="46.151" end="50.937">(How about this weather?)</span></span>
<span begin="52.314" end="56.701">Are the kids all right?</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="54.379" end="1:00.329">(Remember that one time?)</span></span>
<span begin="1:00.147" end="1:03.440">Before every sentence</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="1:02.297" end="1:04.515">(Felt like a sentence)</span></span>
To life with old friends
Droning on
Where's the get
Where's the get in
Being together?
Did we forget
<span begin="1:20.017" end="1:22.924">Did we forget or</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="1:22.627" end="1:26.782">(Is this where I oughta be?)</span></span>
Where's the get
Where's the get in
<span begin="1:30.284" end="1:32.573">Being together?</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="1:31.411" end="1:34.376">(Time has changed the view)</span></span>
When we forget
Are we to gather there's
No more to get
In this together?
<span begin="2:46.117" end="2:51.063">It's been too long, stranger</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="2:48.084" end="2:52.960">(It's been too long, stranger)</span></span>
<span begin="2:54.200" end="2:59.075">I guess the well's run dry</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="2:56.242" end="3:02.171">(Has the well run dry?)</span></span>
<span begin="3:02.297" end="3:05.493">And we've been missing</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:04.343" end="3:07.378">(What are we missing?)</span></span>
<span begin="3:06.034" end="3:09.372">Absolutely nothing</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:08.476" end="3:11.208">(Is there nothing?)</span></span>
<span begin="3:10.597" end="3:13.397">But a memory</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:12.490" end="3:15.432">(About that memory)</span></span>
<span begin="3:14.678" end="3:18.504">To move beyond</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:16.739" end="3:20.054">(To build upon?)</span></span>
Where's the get?
Where's the get in
Being together?
When we forget
<span begin="3:27.753" end="3:32.420">Should we remember</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:30.295" end="3:33.678">(This is where I wanna be)</span></span>
Where's the get?
Where's the get in
<span begin="3:37.724" end="3:41.951">Being together?</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:38.803" end="3:43.492">(Though time has changed the view)</span></span>
When we forget
Are we to gather
There's no more to get
<span begin="3:47.689" end="3:52.236">In this together</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:46.133" end="3:52.837">(You came here because of me)</span></span>
No more to get
Only to give into
<span begin="3:53.339" end="3:57.099">Being together</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:54.064" end="3:59.346">(And I'm me because of you)</span></span>
When I forget won't you
Help me remember
<span begin="4:01.693" end="4:06.141">As we drone on</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="4:03.888" end="4:09.775">(As we drone on past the break of dawn)</span></span>
<span begin="4:09.775" end="4:12.691">Hit rock bottom</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="4:11.765" end="4:14.916">(Of that dry well)</span></span>
<span begin="4:13.624" end="4:16.753">And get to shoveling</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="4:15.722" end="4:18.384">(Fellow stranger)</span></span>
<span begin="4:17.570" end="4:20.370">We're our own water</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="4:19.623" end="4:22.935">(And we've been too long)</span></span>
Too long coming
To be gone
