Snowin on Raton — текст песни (Townes Van Zandt)

By townes van zandt



When the wind dont blow in amarillo

And the moon along the gunnison dont rise

Shall I cast my dreams upon your love, babe

And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes





Its snowin on raton

Come morning Ill be through them hills and gone





Mother thinks the road is long and lonely

Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine

Little darling thinks the road is soft and lovely

Im thankful that old road is a friend of mine





Bid the years good-bye you cannot still them

You cannot turn the circles of the sun

You cannot count the miles until you feel them

And you cannot hold a lover that is gone





Tomorrow the mountains will be sleeping

Silently the blanket green and blue

All that I shall hear the silence they are keeping

Ill bring all their promises to you
