"Long May You Run"

Neil Young

We've been through
some things together
With trunks of memories
still to come
We found things to do
in stormy weather
Long may you run.

Long may you run.
Long may you run.
Although these changes
have come
With your chrome heart shining
in the sun
Long may you run.

Well, it was
back in Blind River in 1962
When I last saw you alive
But we missed that shift
on the long decline
Long may you run.

Long may you run.
Long may you run.
Although these changes
have come
With your chrome heart shining
in the sun
Long may you run.

Maybe The Beach Boys
have got you now
With those waves
singing "Caroline No"
Rollin' down
that empty ocean road
Gettin' to the surf on time.

Long may you run.
Long may you run.
Although these changes
have come
With your chrome heart shining
in the sun
Long may you run.

"Lotta Love" was our wedding song.

================================

Mr Young's son Ben has cerebral palsy. When Mr Young discovered that he and Ben made a strong connection via model trains he developed a number of patents and eventually bought a substantial interest in Lionel Trains.

That's a Dad.

@MR-
I was sad to see Neil and Peggy had divorced last year. I'm sure you know about The Bridge School. Apparently Neil has made and spent several fortunes following his heart on projects like you mention above. He was working on an electric car fashioned from a 1959 Lincoln but I haven't heard much about it lately. I hope I die before he does. I don't know that I want to live in a world without Neil Young in it.

No doubt that Neil is a great, dedicated dad. I've seen him, often, with his son, and others, at Sharks games. Since being a dad to his kids is his most important job, he's successful in my view. Another feather in his cap is his ability to get a hot, well aged, girlfriend, after dumping the wife. I mean, c'mon, how many 68 year old men can brag about banging Daryl Hannah? Putting him on a pedestal, though, doesn't work for me. Have you heard hem talk about his favorite subject, global warming? Google his Howard Stern interview from last year.

Ahh, don't bring up Daryl Hannah. I don't know what the hell I was thinking about when I broke up with her before Senior year.
