lyrics

There are moments that come so easily to mind
Like a first kiss of wind
And they tear away with you for ever

We're deep south and the day begins
With sunlight on bare skin
That shrouds the ways of your dreaming

All i really wanted to do
Was play the vagabond blues with you wherever you came from
Down at the crossroads we're all the same
And maybe we'll never find our way home
Oh I would tear away with you for ever

The famous gambles have all gone south
It's just another tall tale
From an old coastal rambler
Who tramps the winding river mouth
Boats washed up and creaking
As one by one clouds cross over

God's country and the devil's hand
I know them both well and
Isn't it a shame
That god and devil are the same
They take your time
Tear away all the your treasure

There are moments that come so easily to mind
Like a first kiss of wind
And they tear away with you for ever

The stars go out and the day begins
It's a good day to ramble on
Oh I would tear away with you for ever
