She Was Waitin’ for her Mother at the Station in Torino...
Shawn Phillips
The glow around your face
When you see the lighting race
I know I'm very near
And I can hear the thunder
A woman of perplexity
A woman for eternity
A woman of the land
A woman for a man
I'm down on my knees
And I'm saying "Please believe me"
It's hard to fall out of love completely
It's harder to find a way to come back discreetly
To speak of things anew, to weep in quiet blue brocade
Upon your bed, memories should fade at least of you
A scepter of ice and fire
A scepter of my dеsire
A girlchild of such loveliness
Thе woman of my emptiness
A woman of famed renown
A woman who kicks the clown
A woman of the land
A woman for a man
