As recorded by Glen Campbell)



Yesterday

I thought I heard somebody say

Fly away and you'll be free



Now and then

I think about what might have been

Old times and friends and Ruth



Oh, Ruth

Are the skies a little bluer now?

Are the loves a little truer now?

Than the loves we knew



Oh, Ruth

Only mountains and wind remain

They're the only things that stay the same,

Hmmm, don't they, Ruth?



(Musical break)



Oh, Ruth

Are the skies a little bluer now?

Are the loves a little truer now?

Than the loves we knew



Oh, Ruth

Only mountains and wind remain

They're the only things that stay the same,

Hmmm, don't they, Ruth
