Along That Gentle Sloping Road🎸 #Beatles Style / Paul McCartney

［INTRO］ Along that gentle sloping road [Verse 1] We walked beneath the silver rain In silent steps, like slow refrain Umbrellas tilt, but hearts exposed Along that gentle sloping road [Verse 2] The river spoke in muted tones As taxis passed, and dreams were thrown We smiled like strangers, lost and kind Too much to say, too little time [Chorus] And we knew This love had run its course, like midnight through A fading light on cobblestone Two shadows part, but not alone For in the hush, the echoes showed The truth we bore, the love we owed On that gentle sloping road [Verse 3] A café window caught your face Reflected soft in time and space You looked at me, then looked away As if you’d spoken yesterday [Chorus] And we knew This love had run its course, like midnight through A fading light on cobblestone Two shadows part, but not alone For in the hush, the echoes showed The truth we bore, the love we owed On that gentle sloping road [Bridge] No anger left, no last regret Just raindrops on a cigarette You touched my hand, then let it go And vanished like a London ghost [Final Chorus] Still I walk Through quiet streets where we once talked Your laughter lingers in the mist A final glance, a final kiss And though our chapters can’t be sewn This heart will always call it home That gentle sloping road
