作词 : John Vincent 作曲 : John Vincent Walking through the lonesome river valley Where my mother said that I would be Wondering what kind of man I will be Maybe like my father back when he was young So will you carry me to the delta where the water will touch my skin? And the oxygen will give me life Will you take me there, my lover? I don't think I'll make it out Of the hell I created in my mind Maybe somewhere like Virginia, love Maybe somewhere like Virginia, babe Maybe one day I'll be all alone in my sheets But when I wake, I pray that I see you I see you one more time My bloodshot eyes are blinding me Oh, they're only masking the feelings inside of me Boy, on the river I see in front of me, oh yeah Oh, it's never enough to fill my needs So will you carry me home, my dear? Where I first felt love and fear Where I smoked a cigarette, you coughed a lung Will you take me there, my lover? I don't think I'll make it out Of the hell I created in my mind Maybe somewhere like Ohio, love Maybe somewhere like Ohio, babe And I, I need some time To breathe, to escape my head Oh, and the photos, they hang On my wall now, baby And I can't take them down 'cause they're all I have now Maybe one day I'll be all alone in my sheets But when I wake, I pray that I see you One more time And I been trying, I been crying I been dying just to see you One more time And I, I, I No, no, no
