Luyện nghe bài hát Gulf Winds

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

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

So Gulf winds bring me flying fish, shine in the crescent moon
Show me the horizon where the dawn will anew
And me here on this lonely pier, where 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 a flock of sons 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 moved from to town
It's hard to be a princess in the States when skin is brown
And smoothed my worried brow, as I leaned 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
Show me the horizon where the dawn will break
And cool me here on this lonely pier, where the are flying low
the songs my fathers knew in the towns of Mexico

My grandfathers were and it came on down the line
My Father 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

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

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 pier, where the heron are flying low
Echo the songs my fathers knew in the of Mexico

My father turned down a job just to give us something real
It's hard to be a scientist in the when you've got ideals
And Mama kept the budget book, and she kept the too
fish from 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 play ball with the underdog and sit with the child who's wrong
Be still when the earth is silent and sing when my strength is

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

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

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

And winds bring 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, where the heron are low
Echo the songs my knew in the towns of Mexico
