Continental Drifters - A Song For You lyrics

rate me

Written by Gram Parsons

Main Voice: PETER

Produced by Continental Drifters

Released on 'Continental Drifters' (1995)

Oh my land is like a wild goose

It wanders all around everywhere

Trembles and it shakes 'til every tree is loose

Rolls the meadows and it rolls the nails.

So take me down to your dance floor

I won't mind the people when they stare

Paint a different color on your front door

And tomorrow we may still be there.

Now Jesus built a ship to sing a song to

It rolls the rivers and it rolls the tide

Some of our friends don't know who they belong to

Some can't get a single thing to work inside.

So take me down to your dance floor

I won't mind the people when they stare

Paint a different color on your front door

And tomorrow we may still be there.

I love you everyday, now I'm leavin'

I can see the sorrow in your eyes

I hope you know a lot more than you're believin'

Just so the sun don't hurt you when you cry.

Oh, so take me down to your dance floor

I won't mind the people when they stare

Paint a different color on your front door

And tomorrow we may still be there (still be there).

We may still be there (still be there)

Oh, we may still be there (still be there)

And tomorrow we may still be there.
