Skaggs, Ricky - Walls Of Time Lyrics






The wind is blowing cross the mountains
And out on the valley way below.
It sweeps the grave of my darling
When I die that's where I want to go.

Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take her to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth love
And come to you when I die.

I hear a voice out in the darkness
It moans and whispers through the pines
I know it's my sweetheart a calling
I hear her through the walls of time.

Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take her to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth love
And come to you when I die.

Our names are carved upon a tombstone
I promised you before you died
Our love will bloom forever darling
When we rest side by side.

Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take her to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth love
And come to you when I die...

Skaggs, Ricky Walls Of Time Comments
  1. a.... o....

    The blind banjer picker I've performed with 43 years really shuns this tune. Don't know why!
    Pete Rown and Big Mon wrote a great tune IMO. Hannah. I've loved Bg since I was 12. Got my
    1st standup bass when I was 15. Played in 3 different bands.

  2. t.... p....

    I'm playing this song now on with the help of my girl Mandy Lynn.....(a fine Washburn)

  3. B.... H....

    I love you Christina Mae Bush with all my heart and soul like I told you March11th 2008 when we hot married.. Always and forever Brad Lee Houghton

  4. J.... P....

    Chills.

  5. b.... h....

    This song reminds me of The Kentucky Headhunters song " Walk Softly on this Heart of Mine "

  6. B.... H....

    Greetings baby !!! I am in Eureka but heading back to Manila!!!! God bless and protect you in Jesus mighty name Amen

  7. B.... H....

    Good morning Christina Mae Bush..!!! Dear Lord please watch over and protect her and our children and family in Jesus mighty name amen!!!!

  9. h.... ....

    It's cut off a bit at the end.

  10. m.... ....

    All the thumbs down must be Puke Bryan fans

  11. A.... V....

    Love this song.

  12. M.... S....

    I've had that mandolin intro stuck in my head for weeks. It will NOT go away.

    At least it's because I like it. Usually it's the ones I don't like that get stuck in my head.

    I don't usually use the word "powerful" seriously, but this version of this tune is just that!

  13. L.... P....

    Kentucky born, Kentucky proud :)

  14. c.... ....

    I'm pining to see them hills of East Tennessee!

  15. C.... B....

    Gotta love it!

  16. G.... ....

    Today, I have experienced Ricky Skaggs for the first time.  WOW.

  17. m.... ....

    Best remake of all time!

  18. H.... N....

    I love bluegrass so much. It touches my soul like no other style of music.

    H.... N....

    blue grass is amazing makes u wanna tap ur feet to the beat

    H.... N....

    Only if it's good. This is great!

    H.... N....

    ....ain't it great.

    H.... N....

    Hannah--Wanna sing/play in our band??

    H.... N....

    You should play it! Bluegrass is way better for the player than the listener :)
    Tons of fun. Bass is very easy, so you can get started right away!

  19. S.... d....

    I know right...

  20. S.... d....

    Doubt all you want. In my experience doubt leads to true knowledge. Question, grow Caterpillar!

  21. S.... t....

    A religious bluegrass song? Unheard of.....

  22. S.... d....

    "Lord" and "Angels" are religious terms, as they are form in "religious" text, like the bible and the quran (Allah is just another name for Lord). Doubt if you so wish, I don't pretend to know everything. And my exact words were that "some people may call me a "hippie"...I am not "self-proclaimed"...ugh...too many quotations, haha. I don't wish to argue...just to defend my statement.

    S.... d....

    chill out man. good song.

    S.... d....

    Let the man speak his mind. No need to preach to him “to chill.”

  23. H.... ....

    I first heard a guitar player at our jam do this song. I then heard the Peter Rowan version which I really liked. This is a good rendition also.

  24. d.... ....

    Best version ever!

  25. t.... ....

    @gamlastanarn, bite your tongue! But I agree with you! ;)

  26. T.... J....

    every so often someone uncovers potential in a song that we didn't know was there I think while many may have enjoyed the original it is hard to deny that this version is nearly perfect

  27. O.... K....

    @TheSokodelic The lyrics aren't at all that religious. More hippy, spiritual than religious. Come on now self proclaimed hippy. Great lyrics. Up there with Robert Hunter. I hope you know who that is, but then again, I have my doubts in you.

  28. B.... k....

    why does this video have no views. its GREAT tune!

  29. m.... w....

    hippies are dead, theres no more true hippies

    m.... w....

    Not good

  30. S.... d....

    I am what some people may call a "hippie" but you know what I do appreciate music like this, so call me a folkie.....lol. Don't care much about the words though, aint religious

  31. s.... r....

    nice song!!!...good job my girl...haha...
