Gentle on My Mind - Alison Krauss[00:00:02]

Written by：John Hartford[00:00:05]

It's knowing that your door is always open[00:00:14]

And your path is free to walk[00:00:17]

That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag[00:00:24]

Rolled up and stashed behind your couch[00:00:27]

And it's knowing I'm not shackled[00:00:33]

By forgotten words and bonds[00:00:36]

And the ink stains that are dried up on some line[00:00:38]

That keeps you in the backroads[00:00:46]

By the rivers of my memory[00:00:48]

And keeps you ever gentle on my mind[00:00:51]

It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy[00:00:58]

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

Or something that somebody said[00:01:08]

Because they thought we fit together walking[00:01:11]

It's just knowing that the world[00:01:18]

Will not be cursing or forgiving[00:01:20]

When I walk along some railroad track and find[00:01:23]

That you're moving on the backroads[00:01:30]

By the rivers of my memory[00:01:33]

And for hours you're just gentle on my mind[00:01:35]

Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines[00:01:43]

And the junkyards and the highways come between us[00:01:45]

And some other woman's crying to her mother[00:01:53]

'Cause she turned and you were gone[00:01:56]

I still might run in silence[00:02:03]

Tears of joy might stain my face[00:02:05]

And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind[00:02:08]

But not to where I cannot see[00:02:15]

You walking on the backroads[00:02:17]

By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind[00:02:20]

You dip your cup of soup back from a gurgling[00:02:27]

Crackling caldron in some train yard[00:02:30]

Your beard a roughening coal pile[00:02:37]

And a dirty hat pulled low across your face[00:02:40]

Through cupped hands 'round the tin can[00:02:47]

I pretend to hold you to my breast and find[00:02:49]

That you're waiting from the backroads[00:02:57]

By the rivers of my memories[00:02:59]

Ever smiling ever gentle on my mind[00:03:02]
