He was stranded in some tiny town On fair Princes Isle Awaiting for a ship to come and find him A one horse place a friendly face Some coffee and a tiny trace Of fiddlin in the distant far behind him
A dime across the counter then A shy hello a brand new friend A walk along the street in the wintry weather A yellow light an open door And a welcome friend there's room for one more And then they'er standing there inside together
He said I've heard that tune before somewhere But I cant remember when Was it on some other friendly shore Or did I hear it on[Bm] the wind Was it written on the sky above I think I heard it from someone I loved But I never heard it sound so sweet since then
Now his feet begin to tap A little boy says I'll take your hat He's cought up in the magic of her smile And leap the heart inside him went And off acrosse the floor he sent His clumsey body graceful as a child
He said there's magic in the fiddlers arm There's magic in this town There's magic in the dancers feet And the way they put them down People smiling everywhere Boots and ribbons locks of hair And laughter and old blue suits and easter gowns
Now the sailor's gone the room is bare The old piano sitting there Someone's hat left sitting on the rack And empty chair the wodden floor That feels the totch of shoes no more Awaiting for the dancers to come back
And the fiddle's in the closet Of some daughter in the town The strings are broke and the bow is gone And the cover's buttened down But sometimes on december nights When 5the air is cold and the wind is right There's a melody that passes through this townTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
