Hoyt Axton
Like a lion in the winter, I can hear the summer call
Like a ship out on the ocean made of stone,
And sometimes when I get lonely, I could swear I hear you call.
Oh, the nights are cold and you don`t keep me warm.
Chorus:
And when I first saw you, I first loved you. Here`s the song that I sang to the fire in your eyes,
But somebody told you that it wouldn`t be easy and you carry that lie for the devil to see.
Some sail rivers deep and muddy. Some sail rivers clear and cold,
But the river I`m sailing goes to sea,
And sometimes I do grow weary. Sometimes I feel old,
And sometimes I wonder if you think of me.
(Chorus, repeat 1st verse, & chorus)
