GENTLE ON MY MIND (John Hartford) '67 Ensign Music
It's knowing that your door is always open And your path is free to walk That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up And stashed behind your couch And it's knowing I'm not shacked by forgotten words and bons And the ink stains that have dried upon some line That keeps you in the back roads by the rivers of my mem'ry That keeps you ever gentle on my mind It's not clinging to the rocks and I'd be planted on their columns now that bind me Or something that somebody said because they thought we fit together walking It's just knowin' that the world will not be cursin' or forgiving When I walk along some railroad track and find You're movin' on the back roads by the rivers of my mem'ry And for hours you're just gentle on my mind Though the wheet fields and the clothes lines And the junk yards and the highways come between us And some other woman crying to her mother cause she turned and I was gone I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face And a summer sun might burn me till I'm blind But not to where I cannot see you walking on the back roads By the rivers flowing gentle on my mindTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
