This stunningly beautiful and touching masterpiece captures the haunting moments of change we all face as life takes important people away from us from time to time. All things have come to pass yet we cling to the known present as if we want it to last forever when it is already gone in a flash. We all have experienced and will experience many of these pivotal moments in life. We really don't know life...at all.
I packed up my bags Put in my favorite Levis Laid my mandolin beside the door Said to momma I won't be long Don't worry about me I'll be home before dark Bought a ticket to New York City One way out and no return I watched the sun go down Across the plains from Denver Lord, how the western sky can burn Met a boy in the darkness Handsome, tall and heartless I loved him like an eagle loves the wind Till I heard him say I won't be long Don't worry about me I'll be home before dark I'll be alright And you'll be fine without me I'll be home before dark My daughter looks like him they say To me she looks like momma I see an eagle's shadow in her eyes Last night at her birthday We blew the candles out together I wonder will she take me by surprise When she says momma I won't be long Don't worry about me I'll be home before dark I'll be alright And you'll be fine without me I'll be home before dark I'll be home before dark

Uma linda canção..
Voz doce...
A fabulous song
Such a beautiful song
Hey Judy, great track. Go Judy
I packed up my bags
Put in my favorite Levis
Laid my mandolin beside the door
Said to momma
I won't be long
Don't worry about me
I'll be home before dark
Bought a ticket to New York City
One way out and no return
I watched the sun go down
Across the plains from Denver
Lord, how the western sky can burn
Met a boy in the darkness
Handsome, tall and heartless
I loved him like an eagle loves the wind
Till I heard him say
I won't be long
Don't worry about me
I'll be home before dark
I'll be alright
And you'll be fine without me
I'll be home before dark
My daughter looks like him they say
To me she looks like momma
I see an eagle's shadow in her eyes
Last night at her birthday
We blew the candles out together
I wonder will she take me by surprise
When she says momma
I won't be long
Don't worry about me
I'll be home before dark
I'll be alright
And you'll be fine without me
I'll be home before dark
I'll be home before dark
