Crossroads seem to come and go, yeah |
|
The gypsy flies from coast to coast |
|
Knowing many, loving none |
|
Bearing sorrow having fun |
|
But back home he'll always run |
|
To sweet Melissa |
|
Mm..... |
|
Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same |
|
And no one knows the gypsy's name |
|
No one hears his lonely sigh |
|
There are no blankets where he lies |
|
In all his deepest dreams the gypsy flies |
|
With sweet Melissa |
|
Mm..... |
|
Again the morning's come |
|
Again he's on the run |
|
Sunbeams shining through his hair |
|
Appearing not to have a care |
|
Well pick up your gear and gypsy roll on |
|
Roll on |
|
Crossroads, will you ever let him go? |
|
Will you hide the dead man's ghost |
|
Or will he lie, beneath the clay |
|
Or will his spirit roll away? |
|
But I know that he won't stay |
|
Without Melissa |
|
Yes I know that he won't stay |
|
Without Melissa |
