A Song For You – Gram Parsons

Oh, my land is like a wild goose
Wanders all around, everywhere
Trembles and it shakes ’til every tree is loose
It rolls the meadows, and it rolls the nails

So, take me down to your dance floor
I won’t mind people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow, we will still be there

Jesus built a ship to sing a song to
It sails the river, and it sails the tide
Some of my 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
And I won’t mind the people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow, we will still be there

I’ve loved you every day, and now I’m leaving
And I can see the sorrow in your eyes
I hope you know a lot more than you’re believing
Just so the sun don’t hurt you when you cry

Oh, 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
And tomorrow, we may still be there
