所属专辑：Modern Twang

时长： 03:39

it's knowin' that your door is always open[00:00:31]

and your path is free to walk[00:00:31]

that makes me tend to leave my sleepin' bag[00:00:38]

rolled up and stashed behind your couch[00:00:40]

and it's knowin' i'm not shackled[00:00:47]

by forgotten words and bonds[00:00:49]

and the ink stains that have dried upon some line[00:00:52]

that keeps you in the back roads[00:00:59]

by the rivers of my memory[00:01:01]

that keeps you ever gentle on my mind[00:01:04]

it's not clingin' to the rocks and ivy[00:01:15]

and for hours you're just gentle on my mind[00:01:18]

or something that somebody said[00:01:25]

because they thought we fit together walkin'[00:01:28]

it's just knowing that the world[00:01:35]

will not be cursing or forgiving[00:01:37]

when i walk along some railroad track and find[00:01:39]

that you're movin' on the back roads[00:01:46]

by the rivers of my memory[00:01:49]

planted on their columns now that bind me[00:01:51]

though the wheat fields and the clothes lines[00:02:36]

and the junkyards and the highways come between us[00:02:40]

and some other woman's cryin' to her mother[00:02:46]

'cause she turned and i was gone[00:02:50]

i still might run in silence[00:02:56]

tears of joy might stain my face[00:02:58]

but not to where i cannot see you[00:03:07]

walkin' on the back roads[00:03:10]

by the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind[00:03:12]

by dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin' cracklin' cauldron[00:03:24]

and the summer sun might burn me till i'm blind[00:03:28]

in some train yard[00:03:29]

my beard a rustlin' coal pile[00:03:33]

and a dirty hat pulled low across my face[00:03:36]

through cupped hands 'round a tin can[00:03:43]

i pretend to hold you to my breast and find[00:03:46]

that you're waitin' from the back roads[00:03:52]

by the rivers of my memory[00:03:55]

ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind[00:03:57]
