A Dance at the Crossroads歌詞

作詞 : Declan Kinahan
作曲 : Declan Kinahan
The men would gather in their flat caps
They'd talk about this and they'd talk about what
Oh what a summer we're havin'
If it stays dry we'll be laughin'
Well on she came in her long summer dress
Sure for a dance at the crossroads she'd be looking her best
They caught eyes from a mile away
And to the music they began to sway
Well he asked her to dance and she said "I might just"
"Leave some room for holy spirit of no lust"
"I've to be home by twelve
Don't get ahead of yourself"
And he was just like her auld lad, tall dark and handsome
Many is a chip on his shoulder but that never stopped him
She was just like his mother face as pure as her heart
She'd believe anything he'd say about a fresh start
And as the moonlight fell so too did they
At A Dance at the Crossroads to the music they'd sway, to the music they'd sway
One year passes by and they were dancin still
The boys would pass comments like Johnny you know the drill
So he got down on one knee
And soon she was a wife to be
And he was just like her auld lad fond of a bottle or two
Caused himself enough trouble but he muddled on through
She was just like his mother oh she'd never miss church
She'd pray for others in spite of her own hurt
And as the clocks and calendars turned
So too did they
At A Dance at the crossroads to the music they'd sway, to the music they'd sway.
This little thing called of love doing it half heartedly just ain't enough (repeat till finish).
