Gentle On My Mind - Tom Gaebel[00:00:00]
Written by:John Hartford[00:00:05]
It's knowing that your door is always open[00:00:10]
And your path is free to walk[00:00:14]
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag[00:00:20]
Rolled up and stashed behind your couch[00:00:23]
And it's knowing I'm not shackled[00:00:30]
By forgotten words and bonds[00:00:32]
And the ink stains that are dried upon some line[00:00:35]
That keeps you in the backroads[00:00:43]
By the rivers of my memory[00:00:45]
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind[00:00:48]
It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy[00:00:56]
Planted on their columns now that bind me[00:00:58]
Or something that somebody said[00:01:06]
Because they thought we fit together walking[00:01:08]
It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing[00:01:16]
Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find[00:01:19]
That you're moving on the backroads[00:01:29]
By the rivers of my memory[00:01:31]
And for hours you're just gentle on my mind[00:01:34]
I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin'[00:01:41]
Cracklin' caldron in some train yard[00:01:45]
My beard a rustling cold towel and[00:01:52]
A dirty hat pulled low across my face[00:01:54]
Through cupped hands 'round the tin can[00:02:02]
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find[00:02:04]
That you're waiting from the backroads[00:02:12]
By the rivers of my memories[00:02:15]
Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind[00:02:17]
