Weathervane

歌詞

As I walked through the valley Of the shadow of death, come across a man His feet were planted in the ground His hat in his hand He said, "Hey, lovely lady Won't you linger long and tell me a tale Of love songs so sweet And evil that's failed?" For I've stood here so long Weathervane of song Holding down the spike Waiting for lightening to strike My eyes fell so low, they hit the ground I mumbled my name He said, "Girl, raise your eyes Look at me, don't be afraid It's all in your mind It's only my skin that they took I lived this life of loss for you You've got to at least read the book" Oh, I've stood here so long Weathervane of song Holding down the spike Waiting for lightening to strike He said, "Hey, lovely lady, what was it Brought you through my valley floor? All mornings come and gone You never been here before Said, "I ain't nobody made a road map Lead you here There are sign posts everywhere But they ain't very clear" Well, I followed myself Through the wind, through the rain Beyond all that stuff Other side of the grave I walked and I walked Till I felt no pain Till I felt no shame Till I figured the game Now I'm gonna stand here so long Weathervane of song Holding down the spike Waiting for lightening to strike
