Over deze songtekst:
Dit lied is opnieuw uitgebracht door Nanci. Een oudere versie staat op haar album 'The Last of the True Believers'.
Op youtube is alleen een live versie te vinden en helaas niet zo goed.
We walk along the Hudson when it snows here in Manhattan We've lived our lives so out of place You touch my cheek and I do wonder how this happened That two young lovers could pack their dreams And move from the Texas Plains Oh, I'm gonna take us back where we belong Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's coming on One of these days Now, our Daddy's grew cotton spitting dust of a morning We met on a school bus rolling through the Autumn fields our Daddy's raised Beneath a hot August sky our Mothers waved goodbye My Daddy tipped his hat with a tear in his eye When we left for the city where the sun rarely shines It was a hundred and two in the shade Oh, I'm gonna take us back where we belong Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's coming on One of these days Hey, do you wanna take a cab uptown? Watch the skaters go 'round and around We could talk about leaving this town Some other day And I suppose we look like natives here This middle aged couple with silver hair And on cold winter nights this love we share Is still a hundred and two in the shade Oh, I'm gonna take us back where we belong Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's coming on One of these days Yes, I'm gonna take us back where we belong Where you can see it in the stars that the weather's coming on One of these days One of these days One of these days One of these days
