As I Walk Songtext
von Mike Farris

Daddy′s gone away
In the equinox of summertime
And all I see is a haze
Of things to come
And mama she's dancing
With a candle in her hand
′Cause she knows that I
I've got to come home
These times ain't easily forgotten, no no

And as I walk I wear the sun upon my face
It′s true I don′t worry much 'bout time or place
I got some memories in my pocket that I never look at
Besides you never call and I′m cool with that
In my own peculiar way


Maybe yesterday
Is just what I need to show me the way
Or I could be like you
And just close my eyes and run
Little brother he's asking
If he′s old enough to die
'Cause he′s done his time

I walk with the sun upon my face
It's true I don't worry much ′bout time or place
I got some memories in my pocket that I never look at
Besides you never call and I′m cool with that
In my own peculiar way

Daddy's gone away
Now he′s living with the unforgiven
And I can feel it
His battle's just begun
He drinks black coffee through a gun
Spends his days out on the run
I wish I could tell him how much I pray
Each and every day he′d come back but anyway

I walk with the sun upon my face
It's true I don′t worry much 'bout time or place
I got some memories in my pocket that I never look at
Besides you never call and I'm cool with that
In my own peculiar way


I walk with the sun upon my face
It′s true I don′t worry much 'bout time or place
I got some memories in my pocket that I never look at
Besides you never call and I′m cool with that
In my own peculiar way
