GENTLE ON MY MIND (John Hartford)
It's knowin' you don't try to buy my freedom
With some promise made of gold
That for you my door stays open
And our love becomes a simple two-way street
And it's knowin' we're not shackled
By forgotten words and bonds
And the ink stains that have dried upon some line
That keeps you on the back roads
By the rivers of my mem'ry
That keeps you ever gentle on my mindIt's not clingin' to the rocks and ivy
Planted on some column now that binds us
Or somethin' that somebody said because
They thought we fit together walkin'
It's just knowin' that the world
Will not be cursin' or forgivin'
When I drift in through the market place and find
That you're movin' on the back roads
By the rivers of my mem'ry
For hours you're just gentle on my mindOh the wheat fields and the clothes lines
And the junkyards and the highways come between us
And some other woman cryin' to her mother
'Cause she turned and you were gone
I still might walk for hours
Tears of joy might stain my face
And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind
But not to where I cannot see
You movin' on the back roads
By the rivers flowin' gentle on my mindThe shutters creak and Autumn winds
That make me draw inside myself in silence
Cross-legged now I sit and watch
The endless chase of leaves across my garden
And layin' down my hairbrush
I lean backward in my window seat and find
That you're movin' on the back roads
By the rivers of my mem'ry
Ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind

THIS IS MY SONG (from the Universal picture ''A Countess from Hong Kong'') (Charlie Chaplin)
Why is my heart so light
Why are the stars so bright
Why is the sky so blue
Since the hour I met youFlowers are smiling bright
Smiling for our delight
Smiling so tenderly
For the world, you and meI know why the world is smiling
Smiling so tenderly
Its just the same old story
Thru all eternityLove, this is my song
Here is a song, a serenade to you
The world cannot be wrong
If in this world there's youI care not what the world may say
Without your love there is no day
So Love, this is my song
Here is a song, a serenade to youLove, this is my song
Here is a song, a serenade to you
The world cannot be wrong
If in this world there's youI care not what the world may say
Without your love there is no day
So Love, this is my song
Here is a song, a serenade to you
Wow. I really like these.
