[Verse 1] The clouds filled the sky and the snow tumbled down From Rhinelander down over old Titletown And the fields and the rivers once golden and brown Long hide 'neath the cold white and blue There's a voice on the phone said, "I know that you're gone I've lost you, and all that we knew" I don't know just where I'm a-goin' But I'll be going soon
[Verse 2] Still the Christmas lights hang at the center of town Near Malarkey's from Jefferson to Washington I thank the good Lord they ain't taken down As I cling to the years that are through But the cold, drunken crowd is getting warmer and louder I know that it's time for a tune I don't know just where I'm a-goin' But I'll be going soon
[Chorus 1] Somewhere far away, she's crying my name In the drum of my ear there's a-ringing But the fiddle plays on and the crowd sings along Though they know not the words to be singing, just...
[Verse 3] It's fifteen-below as the plows clear the road But what way could be cleared back to you that I know? For the engine won't turn and your heart's letting go Of a fool who's torn into two So, as snowflakes dance down their currents of chance Will love chance again upon me and you? I don't know just where I'm a-goin' But I'll be going soon
[Chorus 2] Well, I've failed, but I've tried Hell, before they died Even angels and saints were a-begging Now they sing some sweet song in perrenial dawn In an old unknown tongue, I reckon. Like... "Lie-lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie
"Lie-lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie Lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie" [Verse 4] Now the Black-Cappeds sing in the dawning of day And the icicles melt on their way to the bay So too it would seem I should be on my way For I've lingered too long in the gloom Now the slants and the cracks in the walk, how they dance And they talk as I take to a tune I don't know just where I'm a-goin' But I'll be going soonTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
