from the songs album Music From Big Pink
C em f dm
Once i walked through the halls of a station
G c7
Someone called your name
C em f dm
In the street i heard children laughing
G c7
They all sound the same
C f
Wonder, could you ever know me
C g
Know the reason why i live
C f
Is there nothing you can show me
Eb f/g c
Life seems so little to give
Once i climbed up the face of a mountain
And ate the wild fruit there
Fell asleep until the moonlight woke me
And i could taste your hair
Isn't everybody dreaming!
Then the voice i hear is real
Out of all the idle scheming
Can't we have something to feel
Once upon a time leaves me empty
Tomorrow never comes
I could sing the sound of your laughter
Still i don't know your name
Must be some way to repay you
Out of all the good you gave
If a rumour should delay you
Love seems so little to save
