Seem to come and go
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
Knowing many, loving none
Bearing sorrow, having fun
But back home hell always run
To sweet melissa
Freight train
Each car looks the same
All the same
No one knows the gypsys name
No one hears his lonely sighs
There are no blankets where he lies
In all his deepest dreams the gypsy flies
With sweet melissa
Again the mornings come
Again he's on the run
Sunbeams shining through his hair
Appearing not to have a care
Pick up your gear and gypsy roll on
Roll on
Crossroads
Will you ever let him go
Will you hide the dead mans ghost
Will he lie beneath the clay
Will his spirit float away
But I know that he wont stay
Without melissa
Yes I know that he wont stay
Without melissa
Crossroads Seem to come and go The gypsy flies from coast to coast Knowing many, loving none Bearing sorrow, having fun But back home hell always run To sweet melissa Freight train Each car looks the same All the same No one knows the gypsys name No one hears his lonely sighs There are no blankets where he lies In all his deepest dreams the gypsy flies With sweet melissa Again the mornings come Again he's on the run Sunbeams shining through his hair Appearing not to have a care Pick up your gear and gypsy roll on Roll on Crossroads Will you ever let him go Will you hide the dead mans ghost Will he lie beneath the clay Will his spirit float away But I know that he wont stay Without melissa Yes I know that he wont stay Without melissa Explain Request ×
