You Can`t Go Home Again — текст песни (Nanci Griffith)

So much silence to my hometown streets
Gonna put my cheek to the window and watch it sleep
Where the shadow`s fall from sycamore trees
Fight off this north wind and I`ll be headin` back east

(chorus)
Let the Colorado River roll on the sea
I will be crossing it in changes
This `ole town never did really care
that much for me
I don`t know why I always come here
in my dreams
It`s the hardest to hold but it`s the easiest to find
If you`ll slip for the dollar I`ll fall in the wine
But you cannot save your past for today
It will leave you cold on an outbound train

(repeat chorus)

Folded memories in my soul
It`s that old blue line that you can never go back home
So I`m waiting for the moon to rise
He`ll kiss my tears away and set my heart in line

(repeat chorus)

Let the Colorado River roll on to the sea
I will be crossing it in changes
This `ole town never did really care that much for me
I only come here to remember my dreams
Sleep tight
Hill Country town
Goodnight
