John Denver - Shipmates & Cheyenne Lyrics
This song was first released on the windsong album. it is the only album it has been released on.Shipmates and cheyenne, raindrops and cryinHaunt the dreams of an old, old manCandles and church bells, laughter and farewellsRevolve in his thoughts like a windStallions and blizzards, steelies and lizardsAdrift in the meadows of timeNo sense of progression, of age or directionNo meter, no form, no rhymeIll hold me oneJust one rising sunLong after daylight is goneIll hold me oneOne more rising sunTill my daylight and darkness is doneKingdoms and cupboards, losers and loversAnd evnings of blackberry wineFalling like sand, the memry of handsAnd kisses, and whispers and sighsIll hold me oneJust one rising sunTill long after daylight is goneIll hold me oneOne more rising sunTill my daylight and darkness is doneIll hold me oneOne rising sunOne more rising sunTill my daylight and darkness is doneWords by joe henry, music by john denver
