Lyrics
Mysterious Tunnel
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I just could never say,'good-bye' or 'adieu' but the years,they have been so kind to you.
Theres some skills that i have learned to do
And i would certainly like to share them with you.
You're outside hanging wet linen and i am giving a van dyke listening.
If you neen a little stretching that canvas, if you need a shaky ride to laurence, kansas.
If you neen a little help hauling that big, fat stack,
I'll be sitting right here beside my stone age fax machine.
you're there amongst the mountains and i am drinking from a nasty water fountain.
I just never could never lay a beed on you. i took a sad envelope of seed from you. i just never could get something to take root. one just never can tell about the growth shoot. I am crouched with a weak shovel and you are tending the mysterious tunnel.
