words and music by Arlo Guthrie |
|
Warm me from the wind and take my haand |
|
A song is sounding, softly singing |
|
My song is cast upon the rainbow waves |
|
Forever splashing in the sunlight |
|
Prove to me there's a love still left |
|
In all of this emptiness all around me |
|
Take me from the chilling of the evening |
|
Though you know my love that I must go |
|
A-following the winds that blow inside me |
|
I've nowhere left to run or hide |
|
Except if you will come and run beside me |
|
And even if you do there'll be a lot for us to do |
|
To keep believing |
|
Take me from the chilling of the evening |
|
And now my time has come down many streets |
|
I'm coming from a night decaying |
|
The song that itself sings is all alone |
|
I cannot even hear it playing |
|
Now to leave before I understand |
|
Just what it is I know I'm leaving |
|
Take me from the chilling of the evening |
