Текст песни Terry Callier - Wings

Текст:

(here before me) (times are stormy) (tell your story) (i'm bound for glory) like a cloud in the sky or a bird on the wing like the hope in your heart that real freedom can bring like the words you recall in a song that you sing or the sound in your skull like a bell when it rings like a dream you might see with frightening things like a magnet attracts, like a memory clings and the days of our lives are like beads on a string and there's one common end for both beggars and kings beginning and end, the first, the last one step towards the future and two in the past it seems like a blur 'cause it goes by so fast and memories are fading like leaves on the grass like images seen in a dark looking glass man, the pattern is set and the die has been cast there's a test for success and you guess, but alas one turn at the wheel and you're out on your ass and here before times are stormy tell your story baby i'm bound for glory too much of this madness in one time and place emotions can vanish and not leave a trace they bless you and dress you in leather and lace and one soul pays the toll for the whole human race you run for the sun and try to keep up the pace man there's no time to lose and there's no time to waste and it brings you up short like a smack in the face and you're waiting and praying for one saving grace and here before times are stormy tell your story baby i'm bound for glory friendship, kinship, family ties a nod and a wink and a word to the wise you deal with the truth, you deal with the lies sometimes you fall, sometimes you rise a smile, a whisper, a kiss, a sigh can lift up your soul from the earth to the skies but how much can you trust you own ears and eyes what the demon suggests the angel denies and here before times are stormy tell your story baby i'm bound for glory here before times are stormy tell your story baby i'm bound for glory (here before me) (times are stormy) (tell your story) (i'm bound for glory)
