rolling home

Singer: john martyn

rolling home

sun's around my shoulders

rolling home

i feel it getting colder

in my ear i hear the birds cry

cry into the land

while beneath my feet the ship flies

flies into the sand

rolling home

rolling home

thoughts returning

thoughts of what i told her

thoughts returning

thoughts as i get older

in my mind i hear her crying

crying in the wind

in my mind i hear her crying

her tears

they wheel and spin

rolling home

i'm rolling home

golden dawns

are shining all around me

golden dawns

that really think they've found me

and i know i will be happy

and laugh behind the song

and i know i will be happy

when she and i are one

rolling home

i'm rolling home
