Текст David Gray — Kathleen

Lay down my head by the wayside
My worn out shoes
Quite why she went I can’t decide
Yeah but I sure could use

One plate of food steaming and hot
Clean linen ironed
On a fresh made bed but I ain’t got
One salty dime, one salty dime

One salty dime
Just close your eyes it won’t take long
It won’t hurt a bit
Telling myself I could be strong

Or some such brave bullshit
Trucks are roaring by I’m a red ghost
In their tail light gleam
I’m a tumbleweed I’m a spit roast

Just turning in your flame
Oh my darling Kathleen
Cars they sound like waves that are breaking
On some distant shore

I gazed so hard into the great aching sky
It seemed like I wasn’t here no more
That my rushing blood was a river
My eyes two stars

My blowing hair all a quiver
A whispering field of grass
That murmurs as you pass
Oh my darling Kathleen

That whispers out your name
Oh my darling Kathleen
Oh my darling Kathleen
