Nights When I Am Sane

Текст песни Mickey Newbury - Nights When I Am Sane

Nights When I Am Sane LyricsWell it's cold on this mountain
When the winter comes on
The dew in the meadow
Is sprinkled along
This road down to Nashville
Like crystal and stone
It's a place where a man
Sells his soul for a song
God knows, I loved her
Too much, I can see
Much more than she could have
Ever loved me
If I was the last man
In East Tennessee...
Well, at times I feel I need the rain
At times I need the sun
Pleasure is a thread of pain
When it is undone
My moments of insanity
Are never like a chain
I only know I am not free
The nights when I am sane
So do not be concerned, my love
If you see me cry
For the laughter does not choose
To free the happiness inside
Just as there may seem to be
A smile that's out of place
It only means there is a pain
That hurts too much to face
It's cold on this mountain
Winter's come on
The dew in the meadow
Is sprinkled along
This road down to Nashville
Like crystal and stone...
I'm just one man
Sometimes I wish I was three
I could take a forty-four
Pistol to me
Put one in my brain
Just for her memory
One more for my heart
And I would be free
One more for my heart
I would be free
