Strum
D-DU-UDU
I'm weary from this river
It flows far but never nearer to my home
And the war's upon the shores
Keep the single girls indoors
And so all my love songs fall on wasted ears
I grow tired of this highway, it runs far but never my way
Don't you know
But the company of strangers
And the close and the present dangers
Seem to pick me up like an old crow in the snow
Cuz I'm a stranger in a strange land
Guess I left the world behind
And my love is like a galaxy
It seems slow but it sure does shine
And when I'm gone you'll know me by the friends I leave behind
I'm weary of this losin'
What choice is there in choosin if you find
Yourself a stranger in a stranger place
With your beat up shoes and an old suitcase
And a wrist watch that don't ever seem to tell the time
But there's a warm and a gentle feeling, it ain't never worth concealin
what you see
and the reins inside my brains
keeps the memories contained
but i miss you like the wind misses the trees
Cuz I'm a stranger in a strange land
Guess I left the world behind
And my love is like a galaxy
It seems slow but it sure does shine
And when I'm gone you'll know me by the friends I leave behind
And when I'm gone you'll know me by the friends I leave behind
