Sandy Denny - Ringing Down The Years Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • We met when you were still a girl
  • In nineteen sixty eight
  • You wore a white dress and a hat
  • I touched the hand of fate
  • Your sweet voice took my breath away
  • Your smile lit up your face
  • You still had both feet on the ground
  • I was out in space
  • That certain sadness in your eyes
  • The secret of your smile
  • Ive carried all these memories
  • Down manys the weary mile
  • And every time I hear your name
  • My eyes moist up with tears
  • As every word you ever sang
  • Comes ringing down the years.
  • We sat and talked the whole night long
  • Of all our rights and wrongs
  • Of mutual acquaintances
  • We sang each others song
  • You were with me when the morning broke
  • The birds refused to sing
  • They knew when they were beaten
  • They hid beneath their wings.
  • I was in a cleveland hotel room
  • When they telephoned the news
  • I drowned my sorrow all night long
  • The southern comfort blues
  • The show went on to great applause
  • Choking back the tears
  • As every word you ever sang
  • Came ringing down the years.
  • I reached out for the hourglass
  • To turn it face about
  • But who knows where the time goes
  • When your time is running out
  • I know someday well meet again
  • And I know just what Ill find
  • Youll have taught the angels how to sing
  • Georgia - georgia on my mind.
