Moonshine
Back in Colorado, We were living down in Boulder With moonshine in our bellies And Moonbeams on our shoulders Back then I was Free With nothing holding on to me Smoke was smoke and drink was drink And the grass was warm beneath our feet We had moonbeams on our shoulders In nineteen seventy... And I said, What can I say You packed your bags And went away one day And what can I do Except sit on my porch And wait for you to come back One day... And my rocking chair is weary now My heart it feels so alone It's been three long years Since you disappeared My beard has grown so gray and long And now I don't feel so free When you left you took a piece of me Songtexte And I still got moonshine I my belly No more moonbeams are on my shoulders I'm not half the man I use to be And every night I dream of you... In nineteen seventy And I said, What can I say Its been three, four, five years now since you went away, one day What can I do Except sit on my porch And wait for you to come back One day... I see a figure up the road, Under the weight of a heavy load But my eyes they must deceive me now I've had this dream time and again But I find myself upon my feet Just like I have each time before Your hazel eyes met mine Your same old face with a few more lines And we were back in Colorado In that place that they call boulder And the moonshine mixed with tears Float down and moonbeams fell upon Our shoulders She said I've traveled this world A few times around and every night I dream of you In nineteen seventy And She said, What can I do, cause every night I dream of you And what can I say, I have traveled the world to get back to you, to make it home Today... And now we're back In Colorado In that place that they call Boulder We've been on our porch now For twenty odd years With moonshine in our bellies And moonbeams on our shoulders... Aus Songtexte Mania
