Letra de Tomb Of The Unknown Love - Kenny Rogers
Letra de canci�n de Tomb Of The Unknown Love de Kenny Rogers lyrics
One time I drove to see a girl across the country
One night as I was driving through New Mexico
I had the windows wide open
It was cold and I was crying
And I laid her letter on the radio
Then I stopped outside of Tahoe
thru this tiny mining town
At a diner to refill for the ride
And in the wind I heard this crying
Like a heart broke right in two
I turned my collar up and went inside.
Well, I saw this smiling waitress
Joshing friendly with these truckers
They�d give her pats and she�d give them shoves
I said: �Miss what�s that awful crying?�
Everybody laughed and said:
�It�s the tomb of the unknown love�
And then they pointed out the window to this stone
All by itself, beneath the tree, beside the hill
And on that winter night
I read these words alone
These words that are haunting me still, it said:
He lies a young man struck down in his prime
By the awesome burning power of love
He couldn�t stand this true love cheating

So he shot the girl down
They hung him from that tree up ( right ) above
I know that local folks say it�s the wind
But I know it�s crying
from the tomb of the unknown love.
So I drove on to my destination
I did the job my heart commanded of me
And when the sheriff sirens came
I didn�t even try to fight
They counted ten, I came out at three
So now I guess tomorrow morning
Warden reads some kind of paper
How I�m gonna pay the state for what I�ve done
Hey, then they�ll put the shackles on me
And we�ll take a little walk
They won�t have to drag me �cos it�s said and done
And maybe someday they can put me up a stone
All by itself, beneath the tree, beside the hill
And lovers everywhere can come and read along
These words that will give them a chill
and it�ll say:
He lies a young man �.
