A stone thrown from heaven skipping cross the water
|
With disappearing ripples left behind
|
A book with no cover a rhyme with no reason
|
Guess I'll always be one of the roving kind.
|
|
'Cause movings in my soul I guess a Gypsy got ahold
|
Of somebody in my family long ago
|
If some night while half asleep you hear the backdoor softly squeak
|
You'll touch my empty pillow then you'll know.
|
|
That a restless wind is calling me again
|
Her warming hand is tugging at my soul
|
Summer's gone Lord the winter's coming on
|
I can't let it catch me standing in the cold.
|
|
Life may dice out of my bones and it won't leave me alone
|
Till it warms me up and takes another row
|
You can roll seven every time so there ain't no use in tryin'
|
It don't take an educated head to know.
|
|
That when I'm moving down the road I won't need no overload
|
Nor memories of you to weigh my mind
|
So every step I take will just be one more I can make
|
That would put those memories further down the line.
|
|
That a restless wind is calling me again
|
Her warming hand is tugging at my soul
|
Summer's gone Lord the winter's coming on
|
I can't let it catch me standing in the cold...
