Song lyrics A Song For You by Gram Parsons

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

So take me down to your dance floor
And I wonīt mind the 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 rivers and it sails the tide
Some of my friends donīt know who they belong to
Some canīt get a single thing to work inside

So take me down to your dance floor
And I wonīt mind the people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow we will still be there

I loved you every day and now Iīm leaving
And I can see the sorrow in your eyes
I hope you know a lot more than youīre believing
Just so the sun donīt hurt you when you cry

Oh, take me down to your dance floor
I wonīt 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
