Bound to Roam Songtext
von The Black Lillies

Darlin′ Sarah, you know I'm leaving
I′m 21 and bound to roam
I've got a pistol and a greenback dollar
Fare thee well, I'll ride alone

Willie my darlin′, don′t leave me standing
You know I'll gladly be your bride
I′ve got a dagger and a silver dollar
Ride away and you're bound to die

Love it changes like the seasons
Steal your heart like an old freight train
Leaves a young heart cold and wanting
Comes and goes like a summer rain

Darlin′ Willie come down with me
To the river... one last time
I've got treasures for you only
Pleasures for you there to find


Oh dear Sarah, you know I love you
In your trust I do reside
I′ll go with you down to the river
Take my hand, you'll be my guide

Love it changes like the seasons
Steal your heart like an old freight train
Leaves a young heart cold and wanting
Comes and goes like a summer rain

Darlin' Willie, take my hand now
Let′s go down to the water′s edge
Wade on in... feel the water
Wrap around and take us in

Oh dear Sarah I'm so scared now
The water′s rising and I can't swim
Hold my hand and I′ll go with you
Sink on down to the promised land

Love it changes like the seasons
Steal your heart like an old freight train
Leaves a young heart cold and wanting
Comes and goes like a summer rain
