In that dear old village churchyard. I can see a mossy ground. That is where my mother's sleeping. In the cold and silent ground. . I was young but I remember.
Absolue truth, absolute reality,. its those thigns that dont change,. those things that dont fade away,. no matter how much you dont believe them,. no matter how hard you try to wish them away..
Everybody knows a highway song. Sing it with me, people, it won't be long. Underneath the stars, the devil you say. What you can't sing now, you better throw away.
Sittin' alone in my cold prison cell. Watchin the sinkin' sun. My trial on earth is over now. But my main trial is yet to come. . My main trial is yet to come oh Lord.
The date was set, this night was saved. (the music played). For holy vows to be unmade. Silent bouquets fell to the floor. (with no remorse). Forsaking what they're living for.
Mothers not dead, she's only a sleeping. Just patiently waiting for Jesus to come. The birds will be singing while Mother is sleeping. They will sing o'er as the grave sinks away.
Open eyes reveal the thing that's been missing.. Peace of mind - that we won't fall for anything, or fall in line accepting rations naively.. For now we find we won't be swayed so easily..
As a boy I learned of Jesus. With my mother here at home. Gathered there around the fireside. Mother taught us right from wrong. . Happy days I still remember.
Day after day. Alone on a hill. The man with the foolish grin. Is keeping perfectly still. But nobody wants to know him. They can see that he's just a fool.
I hear that bird chirpin' in the tree. I wonder what he's seein' I don't see. Now everybody's happy, but today I feel so wrong. So I guess I'll just shut up and move along.
One night while the moon from heaven was shining. My mother was praying for me to come home. She asked her dear lord watch o'er me out yonder. To send me back home to never more roam.
To fall from the ladder that you've climbed so high. For true love, for victory, for the right to succeed.. Why do we always miss our last chance to try,.
John Wayne was always bald. And he had a woman's name. Valentino was a momma's boy. He cried in his tent all night long. And Harry Truman finally. Dropped the bomb.
No matter what I say or do you're never satisfied. I've tried and tried so many times I'm leavin you now good bye. . I'm ridin on that midnight train my head's a hangin low.
Sunlight has shined on me again,. sunlight has shined and washed away my day.. Fallen from Hell and into your arms, blessed mystery; that you held on..
We were wed in the hills of ol' Virginia. We were happy there together all alone. But I strayed away from my darlin. Through this dark and stormy night I'm goin home.
On a crowded street, or from a passing car. I can see the world from where I am. People stand in line so they can buy their things. They buy a vegetable or a can.
I never won for losing. But it ceased to be amusing when you told me. That ev'ry night you're shining bright. And the big apple band a callin' out your name.
