《Gentle On My Mind》歌词

[00:00:00] Madeleine Peyroux - Gentle On My Mind

[00:00:19] It's knowing that your door is always open

[00:00:25] And your path is free to walk

[00:00:37] That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag

[00:00:42] Rolled up and stashed behind your couch

[00:00:51] And it's knowing I'm not shackled

[00:00:59] By forgotten words and bonds

[00:01:03] And the ink stains that are dried upon some line

[00:01:17] That keeps you in the backroads

[00:01:21] By the rivers of my memory

[00:01:26] That keeps you ever gentle on my mind

[00:01:48] It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy

[00:01:54] Planted on their columns now that bind us

[00:02:06] Or something that somebody said

[00:02:11] Because they thought we fit together walking

[00:02:24] It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing

[00:02:31] Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find

[00:02:46] That you're moving on the backroads

[00:02:51] By the rivers of my memory

[00:02:56] And for hours you're just gentle on my mind

[00:03:18] Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines

[00:03:22] And the junkyards and the highways come between us

[00:03:30] And some other man's cryin' to his mother

[00:03:42] 'Cause he turned and I was gone

[00:03:54] I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face

[00:04:02] And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind

[00:04:16] But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads

[00:04:26] By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind

[00:04:40] I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin'

[00:04:44] Cracklin' caldron in some train yard

[00:04:51] My beard a rustling cold towel and

[00:05:02] A dirty hat pulled low across my face

[00:05:14] Through cupped hands 'round the tin can

[00:05:19] I pretend to hold you to my breast and find

[00:05:36] That you're waiting from the backroads

[00:05:42] By the rivers of my memories

[00:05:46] Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind
