paroles de chanson The Wing and the Wheel (Live) - Nanci Griffith

The wing and the wheel now they carry things away
Whether it's me that does the leavin' or that love that flies away
Moon outside my window looks so lonely tonight
There's a chunk out of it's middle
It's big enough for an old fool to hide

Now, where are all the dreamers, that I used to know?
We used to linger beneath street lamps with our halos and the smoke
Then the wing and the wheel came to carry them away
Now they all live out in the suburbs where their dreams
Are in their children at play

There's a pale sky in the east, all the stars are in the west
Oh, and here's to all the dreamers, may our open hearts find rest
'Cause the wing and the wheel are gonna carry us along
And we'll have memories for company
It's long after the songs are sung and it's so long now
