By townes van zandt
Its plain to see, the sun wont shine today
But I aint in the mood for sunshine anyway
Maybe Ill go insane
I got to stop the pain
Or maybe Ill go down to see kathleen.
A swallow comes and tells me of her dreams
She says shed like to know just what they mean
I feel like I could die
As I watch her flying by
Ride the north wind down to see kathleen.
Stars hang high above, the oceans roar
The moon is come to lead me to her door
Theres crystal across the sand
And the waves, they take my hand.
Soon Im gonna see my sweet kathleen.
Soon Im gonna see my sweet kathleen.
