John Denver "Shipmates and Cheyenne" |
Shipmates and Cheyenne, raindrops and crying Haunt the dreams of an old, old man Candles and church bells, laughter and farewells Revolve in his thoughts like the wind Stallions and blizzards, steelies and lizards Drift in the meadows of time No sense of progression, of age or direction No meter, no form, no rhyme I'll hold me one, just rising sun Long after daylight is gone I'll hold me one, just rising sun Till my daylight and darkness is done Kingdoms and cupboards, losers and lovers And evenings of blackberry wine Falling like sand, a memory of hands And kisses and whispers and sighs I'll hold me one, just rising sun Long after daylight is gone I'll hold me one, one more rising sun Till my daylight and darkness is done I'll hold me one, one more rising sun Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
