《Seabirds(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Seabirds (海鸟) (Album Version) - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

[00:00:20] Don't worry about my politics

[00:00:22] They are what they are

[00:00:25] I work best when I get some rest

[00:00:29] Right now I'm in a bar

[00:00:32] Overlooking the whole wide world

[00:00:35] It's over the Pacific

[00:00:38] I've never written when I was drunk

[00:00:41] This could be terrific

[00:00:45] And the seabird struggles in the wind

[00:00:49] She topples balances again

[00:01:05] The lady sitting next to me

[00:01:09] Is gazing in the eyes

[00:01:12] Of the stranger sitting next to her

[00:01:15] Who is mouthing truths and lies

[00:01:19] He's actually quite nice I guess

[00:01:22] He has an honest look

[00:01:24] He doesn't know I've lost my mind

[00:01:28] Scribbling in this book

[00:01:33] And the seabird struggles in the wind

[00:01:36] She topples balances again

[00:01:52] Consumed by the evening's masterpiece

[00:01:56] Completely introverted

[00:01:59] From here I could stare down eternity

[00:02:02] Leave alone and not feel deserted

[00:02:05] I'm tired of interesting faces

[00:02:08] And the dull ones make my weep

[00:02:12] Don't ask me what my sign is

[00:02:14] Instant intimacy runs cheap

[00:02:53] The ocean is so bountiful

[00:02:56] It spreads from coast to coast

[00:02:59] The winds scale off the whitecaps

[00:03:02] And the things I love the most

[00:03:05] Come wafting up into my lap

[00:03:09] In the colors of the great sunrise

[00:03:13] Children holding cupcakes

[00:03:15] With paradise in their eyes

[00:03:20] And the seabird struggles in the wind

[00:03:23] She topples balances again

[00:03:40] Four big pelicans just flew by

[00:03:43] The room got very still

[00:03:46] One of them carried the breath of God

[00:03:50] Tucked way back in his bill

[00:03:52] I know it was the breath of God

[00:03:56] It's the same as the secret of life

[00:03:59] He's carrying it off to the Shah of Iran

[00:04:02] To trade it for the end of strife

[00:04:07] And the seabird struggles in the wind

[00:04:10] She topples balances again
