Píseň: Shipmates In Cheyenne

Interpret:
Bobby Darin
Album:
Bobby Darin.
Shipmates in Cheyenne and raindrops and cryin'
The dreams of an old, old man
Candles and church bells and laughter and farewells
Revolve in his thoughts like a wind


And I'll hold me one before the daylight is done
I'll hold it today


Stallions and blizzards and steelies and lizards
Adrift in the meadow of his time
No sense of progression, of age or direction
No meter, no form and no rhyme


And I'll hold me one before the daylight is done
I'll hold it today


Kingdoms and cupboards and losers and lovers
And evenin's of blackberry wine
Fallin' like sand, just the memory of her hands
And the kisses, the whispers and sighs


And I'll hold me one before the daylight is done
I'll hold it today


You know ... I'll hold me one...
One more risin' sun...
