Gentle On My Mind 歌詞
Gentle On My Mind - Engelbert Humperdinck (恩格伯特·洪普丁克)
It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk
That makes me tend to keep my sleeping bag rolled up
And stashed behind your couch
It's knowing I'm not shackled
By forgotten words and bonds
And the ink stains that have dried upon some line
That keeps you in the back roads
By the rivers of my memory
And keeps you ever gentle on my mind
It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy
Planted on their columns now that binds me
Or something that somebody said
Because they thought we fit together walking
It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing
Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find
That you're moving on the back roads
By the rivers of my memory and for hours
You're just gentle on my mind
I dip my cup of soup back from a gurgling
Crackling cauldron in some train yard
My beard a roughening coal pile
And a dirty hat pulled low across my face
With cupped hands around a tine can
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
That you're waving from the back roads
By the rivers of my memory
Ever smiling ever gentle on my mind
It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk
That keeps you in the back roads
By the rivers of my memory
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind
Through cupped hands 'round a tin can
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
That you're waitin' from the back roads
By the rivers of my memory
Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind
