Lyrics:

Verse 1

I look across Long Island in the setting sun

Shadows seem to dance around everyone

I look back at the ocean there’s nothing but sea

And wonder if this is reality

Verse 2

I walk to the station catch the Stonington line

Lay back my head. It’s like a mountain I climbed

One more day and I’ll soon be there

Providence calls to my evening prayer

Chorus

That’s the way I got from there to here

It seems to roll into another year

A little laughter, a few more tears

That’s the way I got from there to here.

Verse 3

So the train moves on and time moves on

I’m sitting here thinking that I belong

To this new world of hope, opportunity

No more locks on doors, no master key

Verse 4

The moon shines down across a canopy of trees

On a warm summer night well I feel so at ease

One more day and I’ll soon be there

Providence calls to my evening prayer.
