《On The Border(Live)》歌词

[00:00:01] On The Border (Live) (2001 Digital Remaster) - Al Stewart

[00:00:48] The fishing boats go out across the evening water

[00:00:52] Smuggling guns and arms across the Spanish border

[00:00:57] The wind whips up the waves so loud

[00:00:59] The ghost moon sails among the clouds

[00:01:02] And turns the rifles into silver on the border

[00:01:14] On my wall the colors of the maps are running

[00:01:19] From Africa the winds they talk of changes coming

[00:01:24] The torches flare up in the night

[00:01:26] The hand that sets the farms alight

[00:01:29] Has spread the word to those who're waiting on the border

[00:01:36] In the village where I grew up

[00:01:38] Nothing seems the same

[00:01:41] Still you never see the change from day to day

[00:01:45] No one notices the customs slip away

[00:02:03] Late last night the rain was knocking on my window

[00:02:07] I moved across the darkened room and in the lamp-glow

[00:02:12] I thought I saw down in the street

[00:02:14] The spirit of the century

[00:02:17] Telling us that we're all standing on the border

[00:02:25] In the islands where I grew up

[00:02:27] Nothing seems the same

[00:02:29] It's just the patterns that remain an empty shell

[00:02:33] But there's a strangeness in the air you feel too well

[00:02:51] The fishing boats go out across the evening water

[00:02:56] Smuggling guns and arms across the Spanish border

[00:03:00] The wind whips up the waves so loud

[00:03:03] The ghost moon sails among the clouds

[00:03:05] And turns the rifles into silver on the border

[00:03:13] On the border

[00:03:17] On the border

[00:03:22] On the border
