《Drops From My Faucet(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Drops From My Faucet (LP版) - Nanci Griffith (南西·葛瑞芬)

[00:00:15] Drops from the faucet

[00:00:18] Like a nervous heart

[00:00:21] Beat on my porcelain sink

[00:00:24] A rhythm avant garde

[00:00:28] I page through the phone book

[00:00:30] Reach for my fountain pen

[00:00:34] Is he comin' in for the holidays

[00:00:37] To haunt me again

[00:00:40] I call up the grand central

[00:00:44] Information please

[00:00:48] Is that nickel line on time oh fine

[00:00:53] It's a hairdo with a wave

[00:00:57] We both forgot and forgave last time

[00:01:07] A peddler of pots and pans

[00:01:09] Down on union square

[00:01:12] Said city hall

[00:01:14] Wants us off the street

[00:01:16] There's no christmas in the air

[00:01:20] Some high brows were waiting

[00:01:22] Carnation bright lapels

[00:01:26] Their big cars line the curbs

[00:01:29] Outside those grand hotels

[00:01:32] I passed a marquee third avenue

[00:01:38] Ramona with Loretta young

[00:01:43] And I swung myself around

[00:01:49] And headed uptown to the train

[00:02:49] So this is new year's eve

[00:02:52] Another year has passed

[00:02:55] We wait so patiently but still

[00:02:59] They come and go so fast

[00:03:02] I stand on this platform

[00:03:04] Wait for that basket of light

[00:03:08] And the sound of the whistle screamin' out

[00:03:10] Like a hot trumpet in the night

[00:03:14] And as I'm waitin'

[00:03:17] I wonder why and where

[00:03:21] And what went wrong

[00:03:24] But this song don't tell no lies

[00:03:30] It was just a quick goodbye
