Gentle On My Mind Glen Campbell

作词：佚名

作曲：John Hartford

It knowin that your door is always open

And your path is free to walk

That makes me tend to leave my sleepin bag

Rolled up and stashed behind your couch

And it knowin I not shackled

By forgotten words and bonds

And the ink stains that have dried upon some line

That keeps you in the back roads

By the rivers of my memory

That keeps you ever gentle on my mind

It not clingin to the rocks and ivy

Planted on their columns now that bind me

Or something that somebody said because

They thought we fit together walkin

It just knowing that the world

Will not be cursing or forgiving

When I walk along some railroad track and find

That you movin on the back roads

By the rivers of my memory

And for hours you just gentle on my mind

Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines

And the junkyards and the highways come between us

And some other woman cryin to her mother

she turned and I was gone

I still might run in silence

Tears of joy might stain my face

And the summer sun might burn me

Till I blind

But not to where I cannot see

You walkin on the back roads

By the rivers flowin gentle on my mind

I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin

Cracklin cauldron

In some train yard

My beard a rustlin coal pile

And a dirty hat pulled low across my face

Through cupped hands a tin can

I pretend to hold you to my breast and find

That you waitin from the back roads

By the rivers of my memory

Ever smilin ever gentle on my mind

Ever gentle on my mind
