Judy Collins

Song for Martin
In Rough Rock, Arizona he lived for many years alone A gangly kid from Colorada, who could sing the sweetest songs I first heard Woody's songs from him in a cabin in the snow Seems like it was yesterday but it was years and years ago He moved to Arizona in nineteen sixty-one Got a job at the Indian school - he was livin' in the sun My life was movin' fast by now, I was always on the run My country life was far behind and the circus had begun Marty, I know it got lonely out there Coyotes cryin' at midnight in the cold desert air The heart that sorrow broke in you can never be repaired Letras de cancionesMart, I know I let you down somewhere I knew that me and Marty, we should have been good friends I always knew the paths we walked were meant to cross again We talked on the telephone once or twice a year His voice was so familiar, his memory was clear I'll never know what brought him to where he finally stood A shotgun pointed at his head in a cabin in the woods But somehow I could hear it, it struck my heart as well For the unknown man who needs a hand For the friend I'll never know Marty, I know it got lonely out there Coyotes cryin' at midnight in the cold desert air The heart that sorrow broke in you can never be repaired Mart, I know I let you down somewhere From Letras Mania
