Gonna Lay Down My Old Guitar - Byron Parker and His Mountaineers

Gonna lay my burden down Lay my body in the ground Cold clay against my skin but I don't care at all Can't seem to find my piece of mind So with the earth I'll lay entwined Six feet underground my feet are warm and dry When I get to the other side I'll put your picture way up high But I'm not coming back to you it's just too far If I was cast out on the sea Would you come and look for me Would you just let me sink beneath the waves so blue What if I had learned to fly Fly all night 'till day drew nigh Touch down upon a branch and scan the crowd for you When I touch my feet on the land I'll kiss your lips and take you in But you know I'm not here to stay it's just too far Darling can't you hear me cry My bones are broke my tongue is tied The moon is swaying back and forth Against the navy sky is all that I can see My body is trembling on my knees Just have a little mercy on me Run away and hide When I sleep the angels sing But I can not hear a thing Fall down and dreaming of better days gone by When I wake the trumpets play And I'm standing at the gates Eyes close and joy I know My race has just been won When I was young my momma would say Well live is hard, but that's okay If you can make it through the day It's not that far No, it's not that far

あなたを 撃ち落とした わたしの 青い武器は 錆びてしまった 屋根には 虚ろな鳩 甘美な 言葉だけを 食べてしまった 返らない 戻らない 何もない これ以上 あぁ 想い出だけで 繋がるしかなくて あぁ 途切れてしまう 息も絶え絶え 羽根は舞い上り 土へ帰る 青空 飜して はだけた 白い胸は 焦げてしまった 螢火が 降りしきる 追憶の その果てで あぁ 抱かれていても 季節を丁寧に あぁ 撫でていられない もうすぐ散るよ 羽根は燃え尽きて 空へ帰る あぁ 想い出だけで 繋がるしかなくて あぁ 途切れてしまう 息も絶え絶え 羽根は舞い上り 抱かれていても 季節を丁寧に あぁ 撫でていられない もうすぐ散るよ 灰は燃え尽きて どこへ行こう？

Woman you're the closest thing I know to peace on earth Your warm through what feels cold in me And healing to what hurts Woman can you tell me why I'm driven as I am Is there something that I have That makes you give a damn Be my comfort when the world Waves me to the ground Take me when I've lost my way Let me know I'm found Be a blanket to my soul Wrap it all around Be a feather babe to me And lay my body down Touch me with your finger tips Give my burdens rest Tell me not to worry so I know that you know best Lady take my candle stance And hold them in your arm Lie against me in the dark And show me I've come home Be my comfort when the world Waves me to the ground Show me when I've lost my way Let me know I'm found Be a blanket to my soul Wrap it all around Be a feather babe to me And lay my body down Be a feather babe to me And lay my body down

Like the beat, beat, beat of the tom tom When the jungle shadows fall Like the tick, tick, tock of the stately clock As it stands against the wall Like the drip, drip drip of the rain drops When the summer showers through A voice within me keeps repeating You, you, you Night and day you are the one Only you beneath the moon or under the sun Whether near to me or far it's no matter darling Where you are I think of you Day and night, night and day Why is it so that this longing for you Follows where ever I go In the roaring trffic's boom, in the silence of my lonely room I think of you Night and day, day and night Under the hyde of me, there's an oh such a hungry yearning Inside of me And this torment won't be through Till you let me spend my life making love to you Day and night, night and day
