|
There's a storm wind
|
Blowin' through this town
|
It's a long, long way to where I am bound
|
And my heart beats
|
Like a ragged drum
|
To where my lover is waiting
|
I'll carry this song
|
Watch the wild birds fly
|
Into the turning light
|
Feel the ghost of the past
|
Turn in me like a knife
|
If I had my way
|
I'd be in your arms tonight
|
But I'm stuck here in Charlestown
|
See the midnight train pullin'
|
Out of sight
|
|
Oh mamma can you hear me call?
|
In the distant wind
|
So keep the candle burnin'
|
Cause I'll be back again
|
And I swear to God almighty
|
This place can burn in hell
|
So keep a candle burnin'
|
And ring that freedom bell
|
|
Another cold grey morning
|
Snow is all around
|
So many roads, so many dreams
|
Are haunting me now
|
And I would give all my tomorrows
|
To hold you once again
|
Will you shelter me
|
Will you carry me there
|
|
|
