Testo Blind River Boy - Amy Correia
Testo della canzone Blind River Boy (Amy Correia), tratta dall'album Carnival Love
There was a blind boy in Memphis, Tennessee
Who heard the Savior call, but he could not see Him
He walked along the river's edge
Among the weeds and the red clay bed
And he thought that he might follow Him
Thought that he might follow Him
He was walkin' with a can of warm beer in his hand
And singin' a whole lot of love
Cicadas, they were groanin' in the trees
Weavin' drunkenly up toward the sun
And he walked under the swollen sky
And felt the weight of what it was
Oh, blind river boy
Blind river boy
Oh, blind river boy
Where are you goin' to tonight?
Well, he had a thought he might stop and rest
Under the weepin' willow limbs
And he decided to go wading
And he left his boots and hat there by the ledge
And he found his feet out walkin'
Where the water bloomed a brilliant red
Oh, blind river boy
Blind river boy
Oh, blind river boy
Where are you goin' to tonight?
He went in to his waist
And the water curled around him in a wake
Oh, the water spinnin' 'round him
What a lovely sound the water makes
Oh, what a lovely sound the water makes
Tenderly lifted
Like a woman in her lover's gentle arms
Well, the river pulled him under
And he heard a tunneled boat far off call
And a panic rose inside of him
He knew he was in terrible, terrible harm
And now he's headed like a prayer
To be spoken at the river's deepest sound
Oh, blind river boy
Blind river boy
Oh, blind river boy
Where are you goin' to tonight?
Oh, blind river boy
