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