《The Governess》歌词

[00:00:01] The Governess - Metric

[00:00:14] Who did you say you were?

[00:00:17] I didn't catch your name

[00:00:20] Falling down to earth

[00:00:22] Down from a higher plane

[00:00:26] Oh, it's been decades

[00:00:28] Say, what did you see?

[00:00:32] Oh, I've been so lonely

[00:00:34] Won't you keep me company?

[00:00:50] Do you remember me?

[00:00:52] We met out on the farm

[00:00:56] By the fire, you spoke to me

[00:00:58] And held me in your arms

[00:01:02] The songs you played for me

[00:01:04] I long to understand

[00:01:08] All along the watchtower

[00:01:10] And castles made of sand

[00:01:14] When there was a wilderness,

[00:01:16] we wandered wild and free

[00:01:20] Guilt, she is the governess

[00:01:22] that guides me back to grief

[00:01:26] What if we were dumb enough to spend eternity

[00:01:32] Gathering the garbage washed up on the beach?

[00:02:06] Do you remember me?

[00:02:09] We spoke by telephone

[00:02:12] The bad connection had a meaning of its own

[00:02:18] Of all the good and all the stupid shit I've done

[00:02:24] The worst was all for me

[00:02:27] Not hurting anyone

[00:02:54] When there was a wilderness,

[00:02:57] I wandered wild and free

[00:03:00] Guilt, she is the governess

[00:03:02] that guides me back to grief

[00:03:06] Wish that I was old enough to end the century

[00:03:12] Gather all the garbage washed up on the beach
