(Spoken w/no music)
I remember it all started in 1929
When me and Diana came to Alaska
to homestead some of this free government land.
Forty Miles from the nearest gravel road.
We cut our life in the Ponderosa Pines.
We sweated hard to beat the winter snow
But the cabinâs up and we got lots of time.
(Chorus)
What have you got planned tonight Diana
Would you consider lying in my arms
I love you more than ever now Diana
Iâm sure youâre the reason I was born
Jim was born the first year we were here
Look at him. My God, heâs almost grown
The babyâs in the cradle fast asleep
Just think in no time heâll be up and gone.
(Chorus)
(Spoken w/guitar)
Well times sure does fly, doesnât it
Diana
Itâs been almost two years now since,
since youâve been gone
Speaking of time, I guess you know that uh
mineâs about up
Iâm going to see you tonightjust another breath
or twoand Iâll be home
By the way
(Chorus)
