The West Was Burning - Martha Scanlan

作曲 : Scanlan
Was the year the west was burning,
Iwas on a mountain sleeping
Iwoke up a-dreamingabout you
I was walking down a road of dust and bones and ash and following a burning set of tracks that led to you
I still see the fire in your stare
I still think
I coulda burned up there
Out the window there are fields of wheat in
Kansas thatroll out forever under ever underneath the sunif
I could lie there for a moment
Icould feel your arms around me
Icould feel the spinning round the spinningsun
Roll on through the wheat and roll on by
Touch of green against a deep
September turquoise sky(you and I)
When all the glory you could somehow shove insidea bottle doesn't seem to fill the empty cup insideyour soul and all the winding roads you used tofollow never seem to get you halfway where youwant to think you need to go
Times of trouble, times of grace and ease
Mama always said there'd be days like these
And if wishin' was a-walkinand a-thinkinwas a-talkin
I'd be walkin', and a-talkin'back to you
And if I could be a river winding down a mountain
Iwould twist and curl and turn and tumbledown toyou
Tell you stories told by mountains and tall trees
Tell you maybe this is one of these
Was the year the west was burning,
Iwas on a mountain sleeping
Iwoke up a-dreamingabout you
