Luyện nghe bài hát Gulf Winds

It's only when the high blow that I wish my hair was long
Sailing through the autumn leaves an ancient song
Or falling in love in the streets at at the edge of a local square
It's only that I'm tonight thinkin' I was there

There's high winds on the pier tonight, my soul departs me
Striding like Thalia's Ghost on the murky sea
And into midnight's tapestry she fades, and wild
Searching down her ancestry in the costume of a child

So Gulf winds bring me flying fish, that shine in the moon
Show me the horizon where the will break anew
And cool me on this lonely pier, where the heron are flying low
the songs my father knew in the towns of Mexico

When I was young my were wise, my father was good to me
Instead of having a flock of he had two other girls and me
And if we'd used our Spanish names, the way they'd run
Thalia, and Juanita, I'm the middle one

The screen door kept the Demons in as we from town to town
It's hard to be a princess in the States when your skin is
And Mama smoothed my brow, as I leaned on the kitchen door
"Why do you carry the weight", she
"Of the and maybe more"

Gulf winds me flying fish, that shine in the crescent moon
Show me the horizon where the dawn will break
And cool me here on this lonely pier, the heron are flying low
Echo the my fathers knew in the towns of Mexico

My grandfathers ministers and it came on down the line
My preached in his parents' church
When he was ten and nine
And Mama dressed in parishioners' and didn't believe in Hell
Her daddy the DAR, if he'd lived, I'd have known him well

said, "Go find a Sunday School", we must have tried them all
I stole from the silver plate, my sisters had more gall
One preacher said, "Sing out loud and clear, it's the only life got
And the one said, "Be good on earth
another life at the feet of God"

And Gulf winds bring me fish, that shine in the crescent moon
Show me the horizon where the will break anew
And cool me here on this lonely pier, the heron are flying low
Echo the songs my fathers in the towns of Mexico

My father turned down a job just to give us something real
It's hard to be a scientist in the States when you've got
And Mama the budget book, and she kept the garden too
Bought fish the man on Thursdays, fed all of us and strangers too

But will pass and so, alas, will most of what we know
Though tonight my memory's eye is clear as the story's being
And I'll play ball the underdog and sit with the child who's wrong
Be still when the earth is silent and sing my strength is gone

So Gulf winds bring me fish, that shine in the crescent moon
Show me the where the dawn will break anew
And cool me here on this lonely pier, the heron are flying low
Echo the songs my father in the towns of Mexico

Now going to India, sometime in the fall
They tried to stay but you just can't do it all
I'll think him if he goes, there's a little gray in his hair
Though not much 'cause he's Mexican, they don't age, just prepare

And if he goes to India, miss him most of all
He'll see me in the mudlarks' face, hear me in the call
And will stay home, I guess, and worry if she did wrong
And I'll say a prayer for of them and sing them both my song

And Gulf winds bring me flying fish, that shine in the moon
Show me the horizon where the will break anew
And cool me here on this lonely pier, the heron are flying low
Echo the songs my knew in the towns of Mexico
