Luyện nghe bài hát Gulf Winds

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

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

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

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

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

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

My grandfathers were ministers and it came on down the
My Father in his parents' church
When he was ten and nine
And Mama dressed in parishioners' clothes and believe in Hell
Her daddy fought the DAR, if he'd lived, I'd have him well

They said, "Go find a Sunday School", we must have tried all
I never stole from the silver plate, my had more gall
One preacher said, "Sing out loud and clear, it's the only life got
And the next one said, "Be on earth
You've another life at the of God"

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

My father turned many a job just to give us something real
hard to be a scientist in the States when you've got ideals
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 time will pass and so, alas, will of what we know
Though tonight my memory's eye is clear as the story's being
And I'll play with the underdog and sit with the child who's wrong
Be still when the earth is silent and when my strength is gone

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

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

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

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