Donovan - Ballad Of Geraldine слова песни
Oh, I was born with the name GeraldineWith hair coal black as a raven.I travelled my life without a care,Ah, but all my love I was savin`.Oh, the winds blew high and the trees did sway,Not much from life was I askin`.Till I met someone to give all my love,All my love, so long an` lasting.Oh, good were the parts we played in our gameAnd a long ways off was tomorrow.But my love was a rambler and restless as the sea,And in the tide came sorrow.Oh, a child of the night is goin` to be born,I can`t explain my confusion.Is my love thinkin` to marry me at allOr of the freedom he thinks he`ll be losin`?I sit with my friends in the gay crowded room,My friends they`re smokin` and a-talkin`.But it all seems so empty, my love is not there,So I`ll go into the streets a-walkin`.My baby is a-growin` as a-growin` it must,If I were to lose it, it would grieve me.My love is so helpless and I`m wonderin` what to do.Oh, how I yearn to help him.Oh, we could go to the land of your choiceWhere the false shame won`t come knockin` at our door.I`ve a feeling in my heart and it`s crushing all my hopes,I think I`m gonna be hurt some more,Oh, I was born with the name Geraldine,With hair coal black as a raven.I travelled my life without a care,Ah, but all my love I was savin`.
