Fifteen Months   Joan Baez

The cats are sleeping here in the autumn sun
Your dog has flushed a deer and he's on the run
And the coffee cup is cold
And the morning's feeling very old

Fifteen months of time my man's been gone
A second winter now is coming on
And our fates could all be worse
But sometimes I still must curse my own

And hello
I wish you well
Where you sleep
All in your cell

As for friends I can't complain
They've been good to me
The fires buring bright, they've left wood for me
And the roof has been repaired
And I thank them for the love they've shared

You see there's really nothing wrong
I've just got the blues
Cos if you give a damn, you're going to pay some dues
But if you see the game we're in
Like I do you'll know in time we'll win

And hello......
