Gentle On My Mind - Patti Page[00:00:00]

It's knowing you don't try to buy my freedom[00:00:04]

With some promise made of gold[00:00:07]

That for you my door stays open[00:00:12]

And our love becomes a simple two way street[00:00:14]

And it's knowing we're not shackled[00:00:20]

By forgotten words and bonds[00:00:22]

And the ink stains that[00:00:24]

Have dried upon some line[00:00:25]

That keeps you on the back roads[00:00:30]

By the rivers of my memory[00:00:32]

That keeps you ever gentle on my mind[00:00:34]

It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy[00:00:40]

Planted on some column now that binds us[00:00:43]

Or something that somebody said[00:00:47]

Because they thought we fit together walking[00:00:50]

It's just knowing that[00:00:56]

The world will not be[00:00:57]

Cursing or forgiving[00:00:58]

When I'm drifting through the market place and find[00:01:00]

That you're moving on the back roads[00:01:04]

By the rivers of my memory[00:01:08]

And for hours you're just gentle on my mind[00:01:09]

Well the wheat fields and the clothes lines[00:01:15]

And the junkyards and the highways come between us[00:01:17]

And some other woman crying to her mother[00:01:23]

Cause she turned and you were gone[00:01:26]

I still might walk for hours[00:01:31]

Tears of joy might stain my face[00:01:33]

And a summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind[00:01:35]

But not to where I cannot see[00:01:41]

You moving on the back roads[00:01:43]

By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind[00:01:45]

The shutters creek and autumn winds[00:01:51]

That make me draw inside myself in silence[00:01:53]

Cause now I sit and watch[00:01:59]

The endless chase of leaves across my yard[00:02:00]

And laying down my hair brush[00:02:06]

I lean back within my window seat and find[00:02:08]

That your moving on the back roads[00:02:14]

By the rivers of my memory ever smiling[00:02:16]

Ever gentle on my mind[00:02:19]
