World away from me


I've been keeping on the run
I've been traveling with the sun
I've been singing all my life and getting by
Got to keep up with what's goung on
In this place I've been so long
And I guess I'll just keep singing all my life
And it's so good to come home
To a woman all alone
Forgeting how hnd loneliness can be
She will take me from this world
Then she'll gently take the world away from me
l'll be coming home at night
While the kids are sleeping tight
She'll be lit by firelight and looking fine
And the kids jump out of bed
Hello Daddy, what did you get
Did you think of anything on down the line
She'll be talking with her smile
Saying, honey, wait awhile
The kids have missed you, soon they'll be asleep
She will take me from this world
Then she'll gently take the world away from me
Oh the prophets and the sages
And the wise men through the ages
All that's written down on pages from above
Just can't adequately describe
What I'm feeling here inside
It's just useless to be living without love
And I'll take her by her hand
Just a woman and a man
Without trying to understand what we should be
She will take me from this world
Then she'll gently take the world away from me

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics WORLD AWAY FROM ME of ARLO GUTHRIE is also present in the album Outlasting the blues (1979)

Biografia

Arlo Guthrie is an American folk singer-songwriter born in Coney Island, New York, in 1947. Son of the renowned poet and writer Woody Guthrie, Arlo inherited his father's passion for music and strong social commitment that characterize his work. His musical career began in the 1960s with an acoustic folk sound influenced by the folk revival movement. His international success came in 1968 with the song "Alice's Restaurant Massacree", a long satirical ballad that tells the story of a real event and becomes an anthem against the Vietnam War. Guthrie is known for his narrative songs, often of great length, which deal with social, political, and environmental issues. Among his most famous songs are also "Coming into Los Angeles", "City of New Orleans" and "The Motorcycle Song". Arlo Guthrie continues to perform live and record new albums, remaining an icon of American folk.
