Shipmates In Cheyenne
[Verse 1]
Shipmates in Cheyenne
And raindrops in Cryin' [?]
The dreams of an old, old man
Candles and church bells
And laughter and farewells
Revolve in his thoughts like a wind [?]
[Chorus]
And I'll hold me one
Before the daylight is done
I'll hold it today
[Verse 2]
Stallions and blizzards
And steelies and lizards
Are driftin' the meadow of his time
No sense of progression
Of age or direction
No meter, no format, no rhyme
[Chorus]
And I'll hold me one
Before the daylight is done
I'll hold it today
[Verse 3]
Kingdoms and cupboards
And losers and lovers
And evеnings of blackberry wine
Fallin' like sand
Just thе memory of her hands
And the kisses, the whispers and sighs
[Chorus]
And I'll hold me one
Before the daylight is done
I'll hold it today
You know I'll hold me one
One more rising sun
