《Counting Stars》歌词

[00:00:00] Counting Stars - Kate & Anna McGarrigle

[00:00:30] Every year I think about coming back

[00:00:33] Seems like so much more

[00:00:34] Time goes by than that

[00:00:37] Hard to believe it's all real time

[00:00:45] I'm sorry I can't be there

[00:00:46] With everyone on Christmas

[00:00:48] To help bring in wood for the fire

[00:00:50] And carry a stack of warm plates

[00:00:53] To the table where the goose is served

[00:00:59] I got in damned trouble again

[00:01:02] It's like every year I get

[00:01:03] In trouble at Christmas time

[00:01:06] Is to where I expect in the rain

[00:01:10] And the darkness of November

[00:01:12] Leaves me feeling lost and hopeless

[00:01:17] So I went to a bar by myself to try and forget

[00:01:21] That I had nothing and no one

[00:01:24] And I got into a fight with a big loud jock

[00:01:27] He left me counting stars on the floor

[00:01:36] Every damn year is the same

[00:01:39] I say I'll come home

[00:01:40] Once I got a little more to show for myself

[00:01:43] Than just getting in trouble

[00:01:57] We were counting stars on the ski slopes

[00:02:00] Wearing all our clothes up against winter's snap

[00:02:03] Scampering up hell to steal a run

[00:02:06] On the Mohawk toboggan

[00:02:11] And later on we watched the hockey game

[00:02:13] With beer and cigarettes

[00:02:16] And finally we lay down to sleep

[00:02:18] In the small beds of our childhood

[00:02:21] Counting stars with the wavy glass

[00:02:24] Of the old storm windows

[00:02:28] On the big long crazy

[00:02:30] Mohawk toboggan
