《Bang the Drum Slowly》歌词

[00:00:00] Bang the Drum Slowly - Emmylou Harris

[00:00:07] I meant to ask you how to fix that car

[00:00:14] I always meant to ask you about the war

[00:00:22] And what you saw across a bridge too far

[00:00:28] Did it leave a scar

[00:00:32] Or how you navigated wings of fire and steel

[00:00:40] Up where heaven had no more secrets to conceal

[00:00:47] And still you found the ground beneath your wheels

[00:00:54] How did it feel

[00:00:59] Bang the drum slowly play the pipe lowly

[00:01:05] To dust be returning from dust we begin

[00:01:13] Bang the drum slowly I'll speak of things holy

[00:01:20] Above and below me world without end

[00:01:32] I meant to ask you how when everything seemed lost

[00:01:40] And your fate was in a game of dice they tossed

[00:01:47] There was still that line that you would never cross

[00:01:54] At any cost

[00:01:57] I meant to ask you how you lived what you believed

[00:02:06] With nothing but your heart up your sleeve

[00:02:13] And if you ever really were deceived

[00:02:19] By the likes of me

[00:02:24] Bang the drum slowly play the pipe lowly

[00:02:31] To dust be returning from dust we begin

[00:02:38] Bang the drum slowly I'll speak of things holy

[00:02:45] Above and below me world without end

[00:02:55] Gone now is the day and gone the sun

[00:03:01] There is peace tonight all over Arlington

[00:03:08] But the songs of my life will still be sung

[00:03:16] By the light of the moon you hung

[00:03:23] I meant to ask you how to plow that field

[00:03:31] I meant to bring you water from the well

[00:03:38] And be the one beside you when you fell

[00:03:45] Could you tell

[00:03:53] Bang the drum slowly play the pipe lowly

[00:04:00] To dust be returning from dust we begin

[00:04:07] Bang the drum slowly I'll speak of things holy

[00:04:15] Above and below me world without end
