This Free Will — текст песни (Jethro Tull)

She peeled from a stretch black snake

Which slipped up to the hotel door.

Darting looks from piercing eyes --

The stir of memory and then no more.

Well, you know how I have to believe --

She can almost remember my name.



Its been a long time coming, babe --

Long time loose amongst foreign hills --

Shaking my faith in this free will.



Years ago in a coastal town,

Mosquitoes buzzed in her hair.

Schooldress torn and bare feet brown --

Then the rains came and she wasnt there.

Youre closing your doors on me

When you had almost remembered my name.



Its been a long time coming, babe --

Long time loose amongst foreign hills --

Shaking my faith in this free will.



Sharp points in an ink black sky --

Faint words collide, then are lost.

Ill follow you beneath this dome --

Win you back at any cost.

I know we were children then,

But you can almost remember my name.



Its been a long time coming, babe --

Long time loose amongst foreign hills --

Well, lets be children still --

Dont shake my faith in this free will.



Dont shake my faith in this free will.
