Tomb Of The Unknown Love歌词

作词 : Smotherman
Artist:kenny rogers
Songs Title:tomb of the unknown love

One time I drove to see a girl across the country
One night as I was driving through to Mexico

I had the windows wide open, it was cold and I was crying
And I later laid her on the radio
Then I stopped that side of Tahoe through this tiny mining town

At a diner to be filled for the ride

And in the wind I heard this crying, like a heart broke cried a tune

I turned my collar up and went inside

Well, I saw this smiling waitress joshing friendly with these truckers
That give her pats and she gives them shoves

I said, Miss, watch that awful crying, everybody laughed and said
It's the tomb of the unknown love

And then they pointed out the window to this stone

All by myself, beneath the tree, beside the hill

And on that winter night I read these words alone

These words that are haunting me still, it said
Here lies a young man, struck down in his prime
By the awesome burning power of love

He couldn't stand this true love cheating, so he shot the girl down

They hung him from that tree up above

I know that local folks say it's the wind
But I know it's crying from the tomb of the unknown love

So I drove on to my destination
I did the job my heart commanded of me

And when the sheriff sirens came up, I did believe and tried to find
They counted ten, I came out at three

So now I guess tomorrow morning, warden reads some kind of paper
How I'm gonna pay the state for what I've done

Hey, didn't they put their shackles on me and they'll take a little walk
They won't have to drag me a~cos it's said and done

And maybe someday they can put me at this stone

All by itself, beneath the tree, beside the hill

And lovers everywhere can come and meet alone

These words that forgive them up to, and it'll say
Here lies a young man, struck down in his prime
By the awesome burning power of love
He couldn't stand this true love cheating, so he shot the girl down
They hung him from that tree right above

I know that it's local folks say the wind
But I know it's crying from the tomb of the unknown love
