judy collins & ari hest - home before dark lyrics
[verse 1]
i packed up my bags
put in my favorite levi’s
laid my mandoline beside the door
i said to mama
[chorus]
i won’t be long
don’t worry about me
i’ll be home before dark
i’ll be alright
you’ll be fine without me
i’ll be home before dark
[verse 2]
bought a ticket
to new york city
one way out and no return
i watched the sun go down
across the plains from denver
lord, how the western sky can burn
met a boy in the darkness
handsome, tall and heartless
loved him like an eagle loves the wind
till i heard him say
[chorus]
i won’t be long
don’t worry about me
i’ll be home before dark
i’ll be alright
you’ll be fine without me
i’ll be home before dark
[verse 2]
my daughter looks like him they say
to me she looks like mama
i see an eagle shadow in her eyes
last night, on her birthday
we blew the candles out together
i wonder will she take me by surprise
when she says
[chorus]
mama, i won’t be long
don’t worry about me
i’ll be home before dark
i’ll be alright
and you’ll be fine without me
i’ll be home before dark
i’ll be home before dark
