Dean Martin - Gentle On My Mind Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • 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 up on some line
  • That keeps you in the back roads by the rivers of my memory
  • 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 by the rivers of my memory
  • And for hours you're just gentle on my mind
  • Well I dip my cup of soup back from the gurgling crackling caldron in some train yard
  • My beard a roughening coal pile and a dirty hat pulled low across my face
  • Cupped hands 'round a tin can
  • I pretend I hold you to my breast and find that you're waving from the back roads by the river of my memory
  • Ever smiling ever gentle on my mind
