《Gentle On My Mind(2008 Remix)》歌词

[00:00:09] It's knowing that your door is always open and your path is free to walk

[00:00:18] That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed behind your couch

[00:00:26] And it's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds

[00:00:31] And the ink stains that have dried upon some line

[00:00:38] That keeps you in the backroads by the rivers of my mem'ry

[00:00:43] That keeps you ever gentle on my mind

[00:00:48] It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy planted on their columns now that bind me

[00:00:57] Or something that somebody said because they thought we fit together walking

[00:01:06] It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing or forgiving

[00:01:11] When I walk along some railroad track and find

[00:01:17] That you're moving on the backroads by the rivers of my mem'ry

[00:01:22] And for hours you're just gentle on my mind

[00:01:28] Though the wheat fields and the clotheslines

[00:01:31] And the junkyards and the highways come between us

[00:01:37] And some other woman's crying to her mother cause she turned and I was gone

[00:01:46] I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face

[00:01:50] And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind

[00:01:57] But not to where I cannot see you walking on the backroads

[00:02:01] By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind

[00:02:08] I dip my cup of of soup back from a gurgling, crackling cauldron in some train yard

[00:02:17] My beard a roughened coal pile and a dirty hat pulled low across my face

[00:02:25] Through cupped hands round a tin can I pretend to hold you to my breast and find

[00:02:34] That you're wavin' from the backroads by the rivers of my mem'ry

[00:02:38] Ever smiling, ever gentle on my mind
