Mark Knopfler - Monteleone lyrics

rate me

The chisels are calling <br />It’s time to make sawdust <br />Steely reminders of things left to do <br />Monteleone <br />A mandolin’s waiting for you <br /> <br />My fingerplane's working <br />Gentle persuasion <br />I bend to the wood and I coax it to sing <br /> <br />Monteleone <br />Your new one and only will ring <br />Monteleone <br />Your new one and only will ring <br /> <br />The rain on the window <br />The snow on the gravel <br />The seasons go by to the songs in the wood <br /> <br />Too quick or too careless <br />It all could unravel <br />It so easily could <br /> <br />The chisels are calling <br />It’s back for an encore <br />Back to the shavings that cover the floor <br /> <br />Monteleone <br />A call for more <br />Monteleone <br />A call for more<br /><br />
