Standin by Townes Van Zandt Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1972

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm standing with my head bowed down now
That ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long

[Verse 2]
If I hurt you, I did not mean to
I beg your pardon, I did not want to
When I leave you, don't you think about me?
Well, I won't be back, babe, I'll be long gone

[Verse 3]
When the time comes and I'm not ready
Seems it's over before I'm started
Well, the time comes and I don't feel it
I don't know nothing but my own

[Verse 1]
So I'm standing with my head bowed down now
And that ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long
[Verse 4]
Our kingdoms into the sky go
And the highway like a river does flow
On my way, sometimes it hurts so
On your way, just don't go home

[Verse 1]
So I'm standing with my head bowed down now
That ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long

[Outro]
Standing with my head bowed down now
That ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long

Well, I'm standing with my head bowed down now
That ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long
