Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song The Traveling Storm , by - Robert Earl Keen. Song from the album What I Really Mean, in the genre КантриThe Traveling Storm |
| In a year that is not now |
| From a place unknown |
| I travel on the mountain roads |
| Looking for someone |
| Sewn inside my vest, a letter |
| Tells me where and when |
| In my purse a sacred dagger |
| On my horse I run |
| Restless girl beside the water |
| Tending to a fire |
| Kissed a boy and then another |
| Suiting up for war |
| Heard a broken band of gypsies |
| Singing ancient songs |
| Gave all my silver to a beggar |
| Still he wanted more |
| Oh the town of stone and timber |
| Celebration reigned |
| No one there seems to remember |
| Why they carry on |
| Crowded 'round a man of marble |
| Speaking foreign tongues |
| There the stone began to crumble |
| And the crowd did moan |
| In the unforgiving morning |
| Caravans of shame |
| Turn south to the dry land highway |
| I turn to the sea |
| Like a snake so quick and deadly |
| Sleepless, coiled and cool |
| The one I seek is making ready |
| Waiting patiently |
| Pity not the weary traveler |
| He lives in his mind |
| He is friend of wind and weather |
| And from fire is born |
| Pity then the cool betrayer |
| Waiting patiently |
| No precaution made will save him |
| From the traveling storm |
