James Taylor - Enough To Be On Your Way Lyrics
Notes:Jt on sony.com: my brother alex died in 93 on (not for) my birthday. we all went down to florida to say goodbye. the day after we flew home (the day after his cremation) a giant mother hurricanLowed us north through the carolinas; trashing everything in its path and finally raining record rains on marthas vineyard (home).In paris, a year later I changed his character to a hippie chick named alice and the location to santa fe; but my soulful older brother is still all over this song like a cheap suit.Almost *****-free.The sun shines on this funeralThe same as on a birthThe way it shines on everythingThat happens here on earthIt rolls across the western skyAnd back into the seaAnd spends the days last raysUpon this *****ed-up familySo long old palThe last time I saw aliceShe was leaving santa feWith a bunch of round-eyed buddhistsIn a killer chevroletSaid they turned her out of texasYeah she burned em down back homeNow shes wild with expectationOn the edge of the unknownChorus:Oh its enough to be on your wayIts enough just to cover groundIts enough to be moving onHome, build it behind your eyesCarry it in your heartSafe among your ownThey brought her back on a friday nightSame day I was bornWe sent her up the smoke stackAnd back into the stormShe blew up over the san juan mountainsAnd spent herself at lastThe threat of heavy weatherThat was what she knew the bestChorusIt woke me up on a sundayAn hour before the sunIt had me watching the headlightsOut on highway 591til I stepped into my trouserstil I pulled my big boots onI walked out on the mesaAnd I stumbled on this songChorus
