Hey I've been out walking, ain't done too much talking these days |
|
Ah Lord I sit alone and weep all the time to hesitate |
|
Ah now darling don't you cry |
|
I'm just waiting for the sun to shine |
|
Ain't got no heart to sell you |
|
Ain't got no time to tell you |
|
All the answers you came to hear |
|
I just came down from the mountain |
|
And now you know me when I was just a child in your heart |
|
I been waiting so long to say it |
|
I been losing but I been choosing |
|
I've been living on borrowed time |
|
Trying to pay back the debts I owe you |
|
Ah but I never show you why the river could be a woman |
|
Why the sky will ever open |
|
I just want to be here tonight love |
|
I wanna take myself a plane back home |
|
I got a sweet little woman oh but I'm gone now |
|
And I wonder what my little darling does for love |
|
She's walking all alone and here I'm trying to get back home |
|
Hey tell me is there a sadder place to be right now |
|
Ah but now I could here those mountains ringing all around me |
|
I feel it won't take too long to get through it and sing a song |
|
Ah but I don't know if my love can last, oh no |
|
You know I just came in on the rail |
|
Ah damn to keep me another shirt tail |
|
And I been trying to make it ever since oh love |
|
I got a name but mama don't you know I'm ashamed |
|
I been out walking now I ain't been too in much talking |
|
Oh Lord my heart's got too much to yield |
|
Yes but I bring you in now darling |
|
Remember when I was so strong how the liquor and women wore me down |
|
I'm on my knees begging oh please |
|
Hear the mountains ringing, hear the birds a singing |
|
Feel the sun shine on your hands |
|
Just smell the river flow well now |
|
I know my love is growing hear the way the children smile |
|
Makes you glad that you been choosing |
|
Which time you been losing |
|
Ah ain't it great being alive |
