Iris DeMent - Love Abides songtekst
Je score:
Hey, look how far we've come, do we know who we are? Stranded on a mountain top trying to catch a falling star Here's to what we've left behind us, here's to what we've kept inside May the road that lies before us lead to a place where love abides I went walking with my baby through the early morning frost Saw three crosses by the roadside where three young souls were lost I guess they're flying with the angels, Jesus took them for a ride high above the Rio Grande, they'll find a place where love abides You may cross the barren desert, you must walk your path alone but a sudden storm may blind you, shake your spirit to the bone Seeking shelter for a weary heart, somewhere to rest, somewhere to hide Then somewhere down that troubled road you find a place where love abides Our people came across the water with their fearful untamed hearts standing on a foreign shoreline, praying for a brand new start Hand in hand across the mountains and the ragin' rivers wide 'til they've reached the distant ocean or found a place where love abides You may cross the barren desert, you might walk your path alone but a sudden storm may blind you, shake your spirit to the bone Seeking shelter for a weary heart, somewhere to rest, somewhere to hide Then somewhere down that troubled road you find a place where love abides Hey, look how far we've come, do we know who we are? Stranded on a mountain top trying to catch a falling star
