《the hissing of summer lawns》歌词

[00:00:00] The Hissing Of Summer Lawns - Joni Mitchell

[00:00:13] He bought her a diamond for her throat

[00:00:16] He put her in a ranch house on a hill

[00:00:21] She could see the valley barbecues

[00:00:24] From her window sill

[00:00:27] See the blue pools in the squinting sun

[00:00:32] Hear the hissing of summer lawns

[00:00:40] He put up a barbed wire fence

[00:00:44] To keep out the unknown

[00:00:47] And on every metal thorn

[00:00:50] Just a little blood of his own

[00:00:54] She patrols that fence of his

[00:00:57] To a latin drum

[00:00:59] And the hissing of summer lawns

[00:01:02] Darkness

[00:01:03] Wonder makes it easy

[00:01:05] Darkness

[00:01:06] With a joyful mask

[00:01:08] Darkness

[00:01:09] Tube's gone darkness darkness darkness

[00:01:12] No color no contrast

[00:01:42] A diamond dog

[00:01:44] Carrying a cup and a cane

[00:01:47] Looking through a double glass

[00:01:51] Looking at too much pride and too much shame

[00:01:54] There's a black fly buzzing

[00:01:56] There's a heat wave burning in her master's voice

[00:02:00] Hissing summer lawns

[00:02:07] He gave her his darkness to regret

[00:02:11] And good reason to quit him

[00:02:14] He gave her a roomful of chippendale

[00:02:18] That nobody sits in

[00:02:21] Still she stays with a love of some kind

[00:02:24] It's the lady's choice

[00:02:26] The hissing of summer lawns
