Well I just went into town today *
To find my girl who's gone away
She took the Greyhound from the general store
I search myself I search the town
When I finaly did sat down
I find myself no wiser than before
She said we couldn't do no wrong
No other love could be so strong
She locked up my heart in her bottom drawer
Now she took my heart she took my keys
>From in my old blue dungarees
And I'll never go to Texas anymore
Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do
She took my love and walked right out the door
And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before
I took her love at seventen
A little late these days it seems
And they said heaven knows who she's waiting for *
I took her word I took it all
Beneath the sign that said U-haul
Sweet little angel's hanging around for more
Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do
She took my love and walked right out the door
And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before
I thought I had it all sown up
Our love, a plot, a pickup truck
But folks said she was after something more
I never did quite understand
All that talk aout rocking bands
But they just rolled my doll right out the door
They just rolled my doll right out the door
Why---theyjustrolledmydollrightoutthedoor

Should I fall out of love, my fire in the night,
to chase a feather in the wind;
within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
there moves a thread that has no end.
For many hours and days that pass ever soon,
the tides have caused the flame to dim.
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom.
Is this to end or just begin?
Chorus:
All of my love, all of my love, oh,
all of my love to you, now.
All of my love, all of my love,
all of my love to you, now.
The cup is raised, the toast is maade yet again;
one voice is clear above the din.
Proud Arian one word, my will to sustain.
For me, the cloth once more to spin. Oh.
repeat chorus
Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time,
his is the force that lies within.
Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find.
He is a feather in the wind. Oh.
repeat chorus and fade

Sistres of the way-side bide their time in quiet peace,
await their place within the ring of calm;
still stand to turn in seconds of release,
await the call they know may never come.
In times of lightness, no intruder dared upon
to jeodardize the course, upset the run;
and all was joy and hands were raised toward the sun
as love in the halls of plenty overrun.
Still in their bliss unchallenged mighty feast,
unending dances shadowed on the day.
Within their walls, their daunting formless keep,
preserved their joy and kept their doubts at bay.
Faceless legions stood in readiness to weep,
just turn a cion, bring order to the fray;
and ev'rything is soon no sooner thought than deed,
but no one seemed to question anyway.
How keen the hunter's eye prevails upon the land
to seek the unsuspecting and the weak;
and powerless the fabled sat, too smug to lift a hand
toward the foe that threatened from the deep.
Who cares to dry the cheeks of those who saddened stand
adrift upon a sea of futile speech?
Where was your word, where did you go?
Where was your helping, where was your bow? Bow.
Dull is the armour, cold is the day.
Hard was the journey, dark was the way. Way.
I heard the word; I couldn't stay. Oh.
I couldn't stand it another day, another day-ay,
another day, another day.
Touched by the timely coming, roused from the keeper's sleep,
release the grip, throw down the key.
Held now within the knowing, rest now within the peace.
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed.
Held now within the knowing, rest now within the beat.
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed.
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed.
