Luyện nghe bài hát Gulf Winds

It's only when the high winds that I wish my hair was long
Sailing through the autumn singin' an ancient song
Or falling in love in the streets at night at the 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 Thalia's Ghost south on the murky sea
And into tapestry she fades, ragged and wild
Searching her ancestry in the costume of a Persian child

So Gulf winds bring me fish, that shine in the crescent moon
Show me the horizon where the dawn break 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 young my eyes wise, my father was good to me
of having 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, Margarita and Juanita, I'm the one

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

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

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

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

And Gulf winds me flying fish, that shine in the crescent moon
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 fathers in the towns of Mexico

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

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

So Gulf winds bring me flying fish, that shine in the crescent
me the horizon where the dawn 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

Now Father's going to India, in the fall
They tried to stay together but you can't do it all
I'll think about him if he goes, there's a little 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 call
And will stay home, I guess, and worry if she did wrong
And I'll say a prayer for both of them and them both my song

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