A Song for David (David’s Song) Joan Baez

In my heart I will wait
By the stony gate
And the little one
In my arms will sleep
Every rising of the moon
Makes the years grow late

And the love in our hearts will keep
There are friends I will make
And bonds I will break
As the seasons roll by
And we build our own sky

In my heart I will wait
By the stony gate
And the little one
In my arms will sleep

And the stars in your sky
Are the stars in mine
And both prisoners
Of this life are we

Through the same troubled waters
We carry our time
You and the convicts and me
