Gentle On My Mind - Ray Conniff

It's knowing that your door is always open

And your path is free to walk

That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag

Rolled up and stashed behind your couch

And 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 backroads

By the rivers of my mem'ry

That 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 are moving on the backroads

By the rivers of my mem'ry

And for hours you're just gentle on my mind

Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines

And the junkyards

And the highways come between us

And some other woman crying to her mother

'Cause she turned and I was gone

I still might run in silence

Tears of joy might stain my face

And the summer sun might

Burn me 'til I'm blind

But not to where

I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads

By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind
