I took my chances on a one-way ticket home

Growing tired of strangers and the kind of life I've known

Thought the time for settling down had come at last

Guess I hoped to find a future in my past

Walk with me darlin' where the wheatfields used to be

I will tell you stories of my times across the sea

You're the legendary girl I left behind

Can't begin to count the times you've crossed my mind

And Oh your children why the youngest looks just like you

She's the picture of her mother

But there'll never be another quite like you

You're an angel and a time that I don't know anymore

And so goodnight

I'll take my memories to bed

And know that I'll be waking up alone

I should have noticed that the years were slipping by

Still you're just as lovely as the day we said goodbye

Like an old familiar poem that still won't rhyme

I could get back to the place but not the time

And Oh your children why the youngest looks just like you

She's the picture of her mother

But there'll never be another quite like you

You're an angel and a time that I don't know anymore

And so goodnight

I'll take my memories to bed

And know that I'll be waking up alone

I had forgotten this song until stumbling across it after many, many years. It was always my favorite. The man is songwriting genius. I only wish I could see him perform live.

"Hoped to find a future in my past"... "I could get back to the place but not the time" This dude could turn a phrase.

paul williams is such a huge talent. no one does such spot on melody and words like he does. each line hits you in the heart and the head. i can never decide my favorite song, but this is one of them.

The greatest songwriter of our times. Every song he wrote has so much beauty and meaning. Wish I knew him personally, maybe some of it would have rubbed off!

Happy 72nd birthday today to Paul Hamilton Williams Jr, best known for songwriting, including 3 Dog Night's "An Old Fashioned Love Song", Helen Reddy's "You and Me Against the World", David Bowie's "Fill Your Heart", and the Carpenters' "We've Only Just Begun" and "Rainy Days and Mondays". This would be his only chart entry of his own, #60 in 72.Waking Up Alone - Paul Williams

It was a minor hit, but it was easily the finest song on the radio at the time.
