There's Nothing You Can Hold For Very Long

Grateful Dead: Stella Blue

Grateful Dead: Stella Blue...5/13/77

all the years combine
they melt into a dream
a broken angel sings
from a guitar
in the end
there's just a song
comes crying
up the night
through all
the broken dreams
and vanished years
Stella Blue

when all
the cards are down
there's nothing
left to see
there's just
the pavement left
and broken dreams
in the end
there's still that song
comes crying
like the wind
down every lonely street
that's ever been
Stella Blue

i've stayed in every
blue-light cheap hotel
can't win for trying
dust off those rusty strings
just one more time
gonna make em shine

it all rolls
into one
and nothing
comes for free
there's nothing
you can hold
for very long
and when you
hear that song
come crying
like the wind
it seems like
all this life
was just a dream
Stella Blue

NIGHTFALL OF DIAMONDS
I WISH I WAS A HEADLIGHT ON A NORTHBOUND TRAIN
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JERRY GARCIA
