Stone Coyotes (The)

The Ones Who Rocked and Rolled
In a churchyard lies a manHis story widely knownOne day I came upon a girlLaying flowers by his stoneI said, “It is not my intentionTo intrude upon your griefI'll say one thing and one thing onlyAnd it is my true belief”Somewhere it is writtenIn a book all bound in goldThey are assured a place in HeavenThe ones who rocked and rolledShe said, “He was takenIn his thirty-seventh yearAnd since that fateful morningI come to feel his presence hereIf you were to ask meIt is his voice I miss the mostWhen someone speaks a little like himI turn as if I've seen a ghost”I prepared to take my leaveLetras de cancionesFor her face was drawn and paleShe said, “Your words so kind I'll bring to mindWhen my courage starts to failIn the middle of the nightI cannot keep my thoughts at bayI see him climbing up the burning stairwellTo the call of Mayday, Mayday, Mayday”Somewhere it is writtenIn the book of kindred soulsThey answered "Yes" to the question"Did you rock? Did you roll?" From Letras Mania
