By townes van zandt |
|
Ribbons of love |
|
Please keep me true sane |
|
Until i reach home on the morrow |
|
Never never to wander again |
|
I'm weak and i'm weary of sorrow |
|
London to dublin |
|
Australia to perth |
|
I gazed at your sky |
|
I tasted your earth |
|
Sung out my heart |
|
For what it was worth |
|
Never again shall i ramble |
|
There's nowhere left |
|
In this world where to go |
|
My arms, my legs they're a-tremblin' |
|
Thoughts both clouded and blue as the sky |
|
Not even worth the rememberin' |
|
Now as i stumble |
|
And reel to my bed |
|
All that i've done |
|
All that i've said |
|
Means nothin' to me |
|
I'd soon as be dead |
|
All of this world be forgotten |
|
No words of comfort |
|
No words of advice |
|
Nothin' to offer a stranger |
|
Gone the love, gone the spite |
|
It just doesn't matter no longer |
|
My sky's getting far |
|
The ground's gettin' close |
|
My self goin' crazy |
|
The way that it does |
|
I'll lie on my pillow |
|
And sleep if i must |
|
Too late to wish i'd been stronger |
|
Too late to wish i'd been stronger |
