Snowin' on Raton
Songwriters: Van Zandt, Townes
Is a friend of mine
You cannot still them
Will be sleeping
And you cannot hold
The silence they are keeping
You cannot turn
Them hills and gone
Upon your love, babe
Little darling thinks
The road is soft and lovely
A lover that has gone
Is long and lonely
I'm thankful that old road
Mother thinks the road
Tomorrow the mountains
Bid the years good-bye
It's snowin' on Raton
The laughter of your eyes
Green and blue all that I shall hear
And lie beneath
Shall I cast my dreams
Come morning I'll be through
Silent 'neath a blanket
Little brother thinks
The circles of the sun
The road is straight and fine
Until you feel them
You cannot count the miles
The Gunnison don't rise
