Testo Sweet Child - Pentangle
Testo della canzone Sweet Child (Pentangle), tratta dall'album Sweet Child
You've been working so hard all day
Won't you take your rest?
You've been driving my blues away
Now it is my turn
Come climb beneath my wings
Sweet child, it may not be for long
Well, I may be a-drinking hard
Like a fish that swims
And I could be riding high
Like a floating cloud
And if the rain does fall
Sweet child, I would not let you drown
Well, I would not care to see
Untruth in your eyes
I would not care to know
Where your heart does lie
I've tried to trust my heart
But my eyes are failing me
Sweet child, come to me now
Let me take your hand
Well, I do not know you well
Yet I've tried so hard
Through four and twenty years
Sweet child, I still don't understand
Well, I've heard there are great men
Who would save our souls
With kind and gentle hearts
And love is their goal
I really want to know
A sweet child who could shoot them down
And I've thought about a man
Who does sing his life
Who sheds his tears upon
Every mortal soul
I wonder, does he yearn
Sweet child, for death to come for him?
And I once did see a child
She did sit and cry
Where has the pretty flower
In the darkness gone?
In the summer you shall see
Sweet child, I guess it won't be long
Won't you lay yourself down and rest?
Let your mind relax
Won't you cuddle into the night?
I will guide your path
Well, I may not be here long
'Cause I got a feeling to be gone
