Georgetown

歌詞

I wandered into Georgetown just me and my guitar to play some hotel there When I wandered out of Georgetown I had a pocket full of opals and a friendly stare Saying goodbye to a friend I thought I'd never see He still remembered me, so thank you Georgetown I knew him from a coffee shop where singing poets used to stop and talk and play He played me tapes of sung I'd sung of hope and love when I was young just yesterday And I know a lot of people owe their star to him But I know my heart to him, so thank you Georgetown Thank you Georgetown, thank you Georgetown I went in hopeless, came out feelin' free Thank you Georgetown, thank you Georgetown I know you don't know what you've done but you've done a lot for me I thought he looked to travel sad and wiser now from all the things that life had done His doctor wife had run away to feed the sick and helpless with his unborn son And he said he often wondered bout the boy she had Would he ever call him Dad or visit Georgetown? Then he took to drinking for a while till Jeannie came and made him smile and think and then A gentle sadness lit his eyes and said she taught him how to cry and love again And I know a lot of people owe their star to him But I know my heart to him, so thank you Georgetown Thank you Georgetown, thank you Georgetown I went in hopeless, came out feelin' free Thank you Georgetown, thank you Georgetown I know you don't know what you've done But you've done a lot for me I know you don't know what you've done But you've done a lot for me
