Testo di 'The Dreamer' di Darrell Scott

So the shepard boy says to his lady in waitin'
"Give me your heart but give me some time,
I'm not without hope and I'm not hesitatin'
Myself and my treasure to find"

"And I'll make my way back by the light of your heart
In the darkest of night your flame I will see
And we'll dance in the moon and we'll raise us some babies
Forever our souls will be together"

So he sells off his flock for a pick and a shovel
And a fine leather bag to hold all that gold
And he takes her soft hands one last time how he loves her
With the winds of change blowin' cold

Well "goodbye tennessee here I come colorado
I'll piss in your streets and sleep in your hills
And I'll fill up my bag with your turquois and silver
Suzanne, I always will love you"

That night she lay still with the cold winds a blowin'
& the sound of the whipporwill callin' through the trees
"Hey, that man with the soul the size of a pickle
He's left you to do as you please"

So she moves into town and enrolls in a college
And gets her a job with a teaching degree
"Say to hell with you fool, you dreamer- James Butler
By god I'm gonna be happy"

Of course he comes back with holes in his pockets
But ready to claim what he thought was still his
She had a new house in town and a doctor for a husband
And a nursery school full of kids

So he finds him a rope strong enough for a hangin'
With his heart full of sorrow he finds him a tree
But he can't take his life so he takes out his pen knife and carves
I'll always be a dreamer
