Blue Scarf in the Wind

Come and drink with me tonight, Tell me where our love went dry. Morning dew on autumn leaves, Gone before the morning light. My heart beats under aching skin, Lonely nights keep pulling in. If there’s cure for hurting souls, Pour the whiskey deep within. Your blue scarf in the wind, Soft beneath the falling rain. Every night I speak your name, Every dawn the same old pain. Oh the moon hangs far away, Cold above the silver tide. Endless shadows fill the sky, Still your shadow walks beside. Through the fields and through the night, Old songs fading with the light. Old wine, old dreams, old memories — Some old flames still burn inside. Hear the deer cry through the night, Running wild beneath the pines. If you stayed and held my hand, I would walk through dark and light. Moonlight fades and stars burn low, Lonely crows fade through the night. Round and round through empty skies, Searching for a place called home. No mountain stands too high tonight, No ocean pulls my heart away. This whole world keeps turning on, Still my soul is where you stay. Oh the moon still shines above, Cold across these empty roads. Though the years may fade like smoke, Still my heart won’t let you go. Old wine, old songs, old memories, Drifting slow beneath the sky. Come and drink with me once more — Love may fade… but never die.
