Time for My Returning

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The night is a time for my returnin' My lover's heart beats tunes for to tell I nuzzle up 'cause brightful to listen To know again the things I know so well [Verse 2] Well, the day was a day of another highway A-walkin' unknown streets and strangers' ways The evenin' is the time for my returnin' To the bed where my body longs to lay [Verse 3] Her eyes will lead me off a lonesome trail Her hands cool my body hot and weary She can harbor me before tomorrow's journey When I face again the storms of another sea [Verse 4] And her skin will be as moist as softness soil Smellin' warm as the rain fern in the spring And her breathin' is a waterfall plummet To make the darkness swim and my body sing [Verse 5] Then love leaps set the night a-flamin' It'll make the rushin' rivers for to run It'll take me to the depth of the deepest ocean To the place I know every man comes from [Verse 6] Then she'll leave me by the grassy banks of knowledge To the place where the silent waters fall I can sink in the quiet cool and grasses To remember all before the daybreak call [Verse 7] But my head eyes were dreams of my callin' The night is plungin' on down slumber's way The dawn will find my true love lyin' by me To warm my eyes and greet yet another day
