Willie Nelson Moment of Forever?!
Question: Willie's new album has this song on it that I just love but it sounds terribly familiar to me. I think I have heard it before but can't for the life of me who sang it or if I am nuts...lol
I tired to find out but I came up with Linda Rondstat but I don't remember it being a female artist.
If I list the lyrics, can anyone remember who might have done this previously?
Willie Nelson – Keep Me From Blowing Away
Well I spent my whole lifetime,
In a world where the sunshine,
Finds excuses for not hanging around.
I squandered them oceans,
On the slightest of notions
And the first easy lovin’ I found.
But soon all the good times,
the gay times and some playtimes,
Like colors, run together and fade.
Oh lord if you hear me,
Touch me and hold me
And keep me from blowin’ away.
There are times when I tremble,
When my mind remembers,
the days that just crumble away.
With nothing to show
But these lines that I know,
Are beginning to show in my face
Oh lord if you’re listening,
I know I’m no Christian,
I ain’t got much coming to me.
So send down some sunshine
And throw out your lifeline
And keep me from blowing away.
Oh lord if you hear me,
Touch me and hold me,
Keep me from blowing away.

KEEP ME FROM BLOWING AWAY
WRITER PAUL CRAFT
Well I spent my whole lifetime
In a world where the sunshine
Finds excuses for not hangin' 'round
I squandered emotions
On the slightest of notions
And the first easy loving I found
But soon all the good times
The gay times and play times
Like colors run together and fade
Oh Lord if you hear me
Touch me and hold me
And keep me from blowing away
There's times when I trembled
When my mind remembered
The days that just crumbled away
With nothing to show
But these lines that I know
Are beginning to show in my face
Oh Lord if you're listening
I know I'm no Christian
And I ain't got much coming to me
So send down some sunshine
Throw out your lifeline
And keep me from blowing away
Oh Lord if you hear me
Touch me and hold me
And keep me from blowing away
Jerry Lee Lewis was probably the original artist
