Bill Anderson - Shirt слова песни
Last night I was prepparing to go to a partyAnd on the rack with my suits I found the shirt that I`d wornWhen I held her in my arms for the very last timeThe shirt that I vowed I`d never wear againAs I took it from the rack all my dreams came racin` backThe faint perfume of sweet love filled the nightI could see her face again she kissed my lips as thenAnd I almost felt my arms around her tightA shirt that even the Gods must envyFor its arms once encircled the dream that only heavens could bringAgainst this shirt once beat that wonderful heart in the whole wide worldAnd forever each thread shall remind me of herI rolled down I turned up sleeve and scaresly could believeFor I found a strand of her soft golden hairI slowly took it down like a star from an angel`s crownI closed my eyes and softly said a prayerThen I walked to the window sill my eyes began to fillI thought I heard the soft wind call her nameAnd the shirt across my arm grew strangely soft and warmAs if I`d reached and held it to a flameAnd there I stood hearin` only the beat of my own aching heartLost in the dreams of what might have beenAnd the shirt seemed as sorrowful as I and just as empty body and soul
