11 Feb 03 - 02:42 PM (#887888) Subject: Lyr Add: MY FRIEND UPON THE ROAD (Richard Digance) From: Red and White Rabbit Words as promised MY FRIEND UPON THE ROAD Richard Digance I have a friend to share my dreaming, A guitar to play my songs to, And a fishing friend to sit where rivers flowed. There were others gave me money When days weren't quite this sunny, And there's you, my friend, upon the road. For a lonely mile is longer to me Than the shore to which you're rowed. Many men have written songs For friends before, but this belongs To you, my friend upon the road. The stars on the trapeze Twinkle high on midnight seas. There are sights not many see for long. Nature offers us her ballet, Not just shadows in the alley. She provides the dancers. we provide the songs. And she keeps us high when others fall low. Mother Nature takes my load. For your good-to-know-you attitude, I save you both my gratitude, Good lady and my friend upon the road. When we're old and reminiscing There'll be one friend I was kissing And another who made journey's end on time. When we think back on the winnings, And the losing and the singing, It was all of us who helped my words to rhyme. I may be the weaver and the singer of the songs, Helped by two, few people see. So I think my song's a maybe From the street that is my lady And my special friend upon the road and me. |

But for the sake of accuracy (and thank for posting the lyrics, RaWR I couldn't catch some of them), I think the ending is: So I think my songs are maybe From us three, that is my lady, And my special friend upon the road and me. |
