Kathleen Lyrics:

Lay down my head by the wayside
My worn out shoes
Quite why she went I can't decide
Yeah but I sure could use
One plate of food steaming and hot
Clean linen ironed
On a fresh made bed but I ain't got
One salty dime, one salty dime
Just close your eyes, it won't take long
It won't hurt a bit
Telling myself I could be strong
Or some such brave bullshit
Trucks are roaring by, I'm a red ghost
In their tail light gleam
I'm a tumbleweed, I'm a spit roast
Turning in your flame
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
Cars they sound like waves that are breaking
On some distant shore
I gazed so long into the great aching sky
It seemed like I wasn't here no more
My rushing blood was a river
My eyes two stars
My blowing hair all a quiver
A whispering field of grass
That murmurs as you pass
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
That whispers out your name
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
Oh my darlin' Kathleen

My name is Kathleen, my husband of 30 years was the first and only person to call me darling. He died last Christmas and this song just makes me sob every time I hear it, but it's so beautiful in it's sadness.

I’m the only person I know named Kathleen and so I YouTube searched my name to find more lol... looks like I found the right place. Except this song is making me really really sad.
It is really great music. I’m just too emotional for it

One of the most beautiful songs ever written, in my opinion. Should definitely be included in the live shows. 💜

Great song by one of my favorite musician. This guy is the real thing. Writes, plays and produces his music. His star is rising.

Hearing his songs always takes your breath away a little.
