	Story Behind the Song This song was written by my brother Brodie, we used to do it in the Corndogs. Lyrics She writes him a letter to see how he's doing She's stopped up for words on her pen she keeps chewing The light from her window blows through her greying hair The pen on the page is the proof that she still does care 'cause in the long run the stories told In the long run the young grow very very old He sits in the park in the dark by his favorite tree His mind is all lost in the haze of how things used to be She carried him so far but just had to let him go He wanted one more chance to at least let her know That in the long run the heat grows cold In the long run the young grow very very old He doesn't do much now, just sit by the window light His hair is so long and his unshaven face so white His heart feels apart of the breeze that is blowing outside It's a soft kind of magic around him at most times 'cause in the long run the stories told In the long run the young grow very very old She walks in the moring it's best before seven It's that time of day she feels closest to heaven His concience keeps saying something saying something out loud Songs from her childhood that suddenly just came around Yeah in the long run the farm got sold In the long run the young grow very very old He's ready to go now, he's done with his living He's gone where he's going, he's gave what he's giving The thousand and one times he sat before dinner The thousand and two times the lights growing thinner 'cause in the long run the stories told In the long run the young grow very very old
