Gentle On My Mind - Glen Campbell (格伦·坎贝尔)[00:00:00]
Written by:John Harfor/Hartford[00:00:02]
It's knowin' that your door is always open[00:00:08]
And your path is free to walk[00:00:11]
That makes me tend to leave my sleepin' bag[00:00:17]
Rolled up and stashed behind your couch[00:00:20]
And it's knowin' I'm not shackled[00:00:26]
By forgotten words and bonds[00:00:28]
And the ink stains that have dried upon some line[00:00:30]
That keeps you in the back roads[00:00:37]
By the rivers of my memory[00:00:39]
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind[00:00:41]
It's not clingin' to the rocks and ivy[00:00:48]
Planted on their columns now that bind me[00:00:51]
Or something that somebody said because[00:00:57]
They thought we fit together walkin'[00:01:00]
It's just knowing that the world[00:01:05]
Will not be cursing or forgiving[00:01:07]
When I walk along some railroad track and find[00:01:10]
That you're movin' on the back roads[00:01:17]
By the rivers of my memory[00:01:19]
And for hours you're just gentle on my mind[00:01:21]
Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines[00:01:28]
And the junkyards and the highways come between us[00:01:30]
And some other woman's cryin' to her mother[00:01:36]
'Cause she turned and I was gone[00:01:40]
I still might run in silence[00:01:45]
Tears of joy might stain my face[00:01:47]
And the summer sun might burn me[00:01:50]
'Till I'm blind[00:01:52]
But not to where I cannot see[00:01:56]
You walkin' on the back roads[00:01:59]
By the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind[00:02:01]
I dip my cup of soup back[00:02:08]
From a gurglin' cracklin' cauldron[00:02:09]
In some train yard[00:02:11]
My beard a rustlin' coal pile[00:02:16]
And a dirty hat pulled low across my face[00:02:18]
Through cupped hands 'round a tin can[00:02:25]
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find[00:02:27]
That you're waitin' from the back roads[00:02:33]
By the rivers of my memory[00:02:36]
Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind[00:02:38]
