God bless you and keep you from harm, this day and forever.
Well I've got to move on now to Gemini Junction
And that clock full of good times awaiting me there.
Lord, I hope that I find it this side of the Jordan
and if I don't – well it won't be like I didn't care.
There'll be mountains to pass full of many a hazard,
where riders lose heart and horses go lame,
there'll be rivers to cross and a terrible desert,
but I know where to go. It's the way that I came.
There's a man in the moon over Gemini Junction
and the Mexicans call him primero ladrone
what that means, I believe, is the theif who's forgiven:
I should think that he'll wink when he sees I've come home.
I've dreamed of that man with the stars all around him;
I've dreamed of a dawn that would quicken the dead,
but I've dreamed far too long – It's time that I found them,
Or went bust. So there's just one more thing to be said:
I'd admire to see you in Gemini Junction
and I'll send you a letter if I ever get there;
It'll say "What a day for my love to come calling!
My best to the rest. I'm enclosing your fare."
