There was a man on my door step He said, Son, you best wake up There's a great wind a-comin' Once it blows, it won't let up Well, I was young and naive Said, I appreciate you comin' round But I got a house made of brick here Ain't no wind gonna bring it down He left just as he came As if he was never here And I went, I went on livin' Half concerned, without fear Well, I loved her like a fairy tale, I lost her like a dream Pull up on the roadside there and I'll tell you what I mean There's things in life you can't control and things you can't foresee But if you find real love, don't ever let her leave When I awake, oh, her pillow Lays alone on the sheets The wind was relentless Snatched her up like a thief I sat up on my bedside SongtexteNo more loving, no more grief Just as sure as the sun rises She went up, and took off on me Try to think, there's a lesson I got my Stetson down over my eyes That man, he was a visionary He saw something and he was right And now these big thoughts go up buzzing Around my fragile brain I'm just so, so damn lonely So I sing this here refrain Well, I loved her like a fairy tale, I lost her like a dream Pull up on the roadside there and I'll tell you what I mean There's things in life you can't control and things you can't unsee But if you find real love, don't ever let her leave Don't ever let her leave Don't you ever let her leave Aus Songtexte Mania
