Roy Kasten - Elsah, Illinois текст песни

When I woke up this morning, I had no idea
what kisses could come to and how I felt about you
we drove across the river and we drove across the years
We knew there were answers deep in our fears
you asked me to tell you what was mine in this world
said, this won't take long, and I gave it a whirl
I've got poems for your waking and songs for your sleep
The stories I've stolen, I'll give you to keep
know the hills of West Virginia and the streets of Santa Fe
Know everything I've ever done has led up to this day
we were sitting in a meadow, bathed in the birth of light
in Elsah, Illinois, I said, will you be my wife?
I said, look Claire, the sun's a plie, such insensible light
let's sink into togetherness, forever tonight
