[00:00.000] 作词 : John Hartford [00:01.000] 作曲 : John Hartford [00:04.498] It's knowing that your door is always open [00:07.670] And your path is free to walk [00:14.151] That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag [00:17.281] Rolled up and stashed behind your couch [00:23.510] And it's knowing I'm not shackled [00:25.830] By forgotten words and bonds [00:28.592] And the ink stains that are dried upon some line [00:35.841] That keeps you in the backroads [00:38.250] By the rivers of my memory [00:40.842] That keeps you ever gentle on my mind [00:47.681] It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy [00:50.983] Planted on their columns now that bind me [00:57.071] Or something that somebody said [01:00.364] Because they thought we fit together walking [01:07.121] It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing [01:10.891] Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find [01:19.078] That you're moving on the backroads [01:21.811] By the rivers of my memory [01:24.233] And for hours you're just gentle on my mind [01:31.303] Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines [01:33.899] And the junkyards and the highways come between us [01:40.724] And some other woman's cryin' to her mother [01:44.641] 'Cause she turned and I was gone [01:50.897] I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face [01:56.045] And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind [02:03.394] But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads [02:08.251] By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind [02:15.572] I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin' [02:18.762] Cracklin' caldron in some train yard [02:25.283] My beard a rustling, cold towel, and [02:28.343] A dirty hat pulled low across my face [02:34.744] Through cupped hands 'round the tin can [02:37.383] I pretend to hold you to my breast and find [02:44.403] That you're waiting from the backroads [02:47.044] By the rivers of my memories [02:49.601] Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind
