Words and Music Arlo Guthrie



Every hand in the land

Shakes along with me

It don't seem that I can dream

Like I used to dream



Maybe that somebody is shaking me

If I fell I could tell

It may be that somebody is making me

Dream that you're forever

Gone away from me



Every toe that I know

Step away with me

I can't seem to get where

I want to be

Maybe it's my own foot

That keeps tripping me

Trip trap - flip flap

It must come to wherever from it comes

Through to me

I can't walk to where

My own dreams talk to me



Every face in this place

Take your eyes away

Blink if you think that

There's another way

Maybe it's my own eyes

That don't see the way

The time is blind

It may come to pass

That I will lose my mind

I can't live without the love I left behind

I can't live without the love I left behind
