Nanci Griffith - These Days In An Open Book lyrics
Your rating:
Shut it down and call this road a day And put this silence in my heart in a better place I have traveled with your ghost now for so many years That I see you in the shadows in hotel rooms and headlights You're coming up beside me whether it's day or night These days my life is an open book Missing pages I cannot seem to find These days your face in my memory Is in a folded hand of grace against these times No one's ever come between your memory and me I have driven this weary vessel here alone Will you still find me if I leave you here beside this road 'Cause' I need someone who touch me, who'll put no one above me Someone who needs me like the air he breathes These days my life is an open book Missing pages I cannot seem to find These days your face in my memory Is in a folded hand of grace against these times I can't remember where this toll road goes Maybe it's Fort Worth, maybe it's a heart of gold The price of love is such a heavy toll That I've lived my life in the back-roads With your love in my pocket If I spend the love you gave me Tell me where will it go? These days my life is an open book Missing pages I cannot seem to find These days your face in my memory Is in a folded hand of grace against these times These days your face in my memory Is in a folded hand of grace Folded hand of grace (against these times) Folded hand of grace (against these times) Against these times
