《L Ballade》歌词

[00:00:01] In the consecrated chambers

[00:00:06] Of a mountain's winter day

[00:00:13] I left her at the turning

[00:00:18] To go on her seeking way

[00:00:26] To pass o'er meadows green and bare

[00:00:31] Or brown as her auburn hair

[00:00:43] O'er all the waters on the face of the earth

[00:00:48] To find that I really care

[00:01:23] And the myriad reflections of myself

[00:01:27] In her buttons on her oversize navy coat

[00:01:35] But only reflections and never an image

[00:01:40] In her mind's unfathomable moat

[00:01:48] But some castles where she wanders

[00:01:52] Are yet crumbling into dust

[00:02:05] In this house of visions on top of the hill

[00:02:10] The glass has turned to rust

[00:03:53] So never again will I look in her eyes

[00:03:59] Nor shall she hear my voice

[00:04:06] But I hope she will find a better man

[00:04:11] To love him and rejoice

[00:04:19] And he will turn the secret key

[00:04:24] Nay I know it's not up to him

[00:04:37] But somehow in his words and love

[00:04:42] Answer her every whim

[00:05:18] So seek ye lass for what you wish

[00:05:23] But in your troubled heart

[00:05:31] And let not your mind race ahead of your breast

[00:05:36] For the quicker shall you part

[00:05:43] And wait for the click that you speak dear of

[00:05:48] And never will you run

[00:06:01] Light will splinter through open clouds

[00:06:06] And you'll look straight at a face like the sun
