One more spring in Minnesota
To come upon Lake Wobegon
Old town, I smell the coffee
If I could see you one more time

That long, long time is always on my mind
I'm just a stranger with memories of days of long ago
Could it have been forty years since then
What happened to us? I'd like to know.

INST. CHORUS

That yard, that tree - you climbed it once with me
We talked of cities we'd live in someday
I left, old friend, and now I'm back again
Please say you missed me since I went away

One more time, this dance together
Just you and I, now don't be shy
This time, I know I'll hear the music
If you would hold me one more time
