Cautious man歌词
Bill horton was a cautious man of the road
He walked lookin' over his shoulder
And remained faithful to it's code
When something caught his eye
He'd measure his need
And then very carefully hed proceed
Billy met a young girl in the early days of may
It was there in her arms
He let his cautiousness slip away
In their lovers twilight
As the evening sky grew dim
He'd lay back in her arms
And laugh what had happened to him
On his right hand billy tattooed
The word love and on his left hand
Was the word fear
And in which hand he held his fate
Was never clear
Come indian summer he took his young lover
For his bride
And with own hands built a great house
Down by the ri[李兆香博客lizhaoxiang.com]verside
Now Billy was an honest man
He wanted to do what was right
He worked hard to fill their lives
With happy days and loving nights
Alone on his knees in the darkness
For steadiness he'd pray
For he knew in a restless heart
The seed of betrayal lay
One night Billy awoke from a terrible
Dream callin' his wifes name
She lay breathing beside him
In a peaceful sleep a thousand miles away
He got dressed in the moonlight
And down to the highway he strode
When he got there
He didn't find nothing but road
Billy felt a coldness rise up inside him
That he couldn't name
Just as the words tattooed
Cross his knuckles
He knew would always remain
At their bedside he brushed
The hair from his wifes face
As the moon shone on her skin so white
Filling their room with the beauty
Of Gods fallen light
