《The Bells Of St. Sebastian》歌词

[00:00:00] The Bells Of St. Sebastian - Various Artists (欧美群星)

[00:00:05] I remember St Sebastian

[00:00:07] With a memory most unkind

[00:00:11] I can hear the bells

[00:00:12] I heard when I went there

[00:00:16] Inside the church

[00:00:18] Inside my mind

[00:00:21] The bells of St Sebastian

[00:00:23] Only ring once in your ears

[00:00:27] But if you're very young

[00:00:29] When you hear them

[00:00:31] Their sound can last

[00:00:34] A hundred years

[00:00:37] All but the music of the ringing

[00:00:42] Was the music of our singing

[00:00:47] When we were singing kyrie eleison

[00:00:50] Kyrie eleison kyrie eleison

[00:00:58] Each day at lauds

[00:00:59] Each day at lauds

[00:01:00] Each night at vespers

[00:01:02] Each night at vespers

[00:01:03] From every tower the

[00:01:05] Hour would be tolled

[00:01:08] For those of us at St Sebastian

[00:01:11] No longer young and not yet old

[00:01:17] But why did you go to her

[00:01:19] To see what she was like

[00:01:21] Each day at St Sebastian

[00:01:24] In the classroom we would hear

[00:01:27] That devils lurked behind every corner

[00:01:32] If you tried to look

[00:01:34] They would disappear

[00:01:38] The nuns of St Sebastian

[00:01:40] Tried to teach the facts of life

[00:01:43] Explaining there are two kinds of women

[00:01:48] One was a whore

[00:01:50] One was a wife

[00:01:53] But the music of the ringing

[00:01:59] Was a different world

[00:02:00] That opened through our singing

[00:02:03] When we were singing kyrie eleison

[00:02:07] Kyrie eleison kyrie eleison

[00:02:14] They rang at dawn they rang at dawn

[00:02:17] They rang at midnight

[00:02:18] They rang at midnight

[00:02:19] In tones well rounded

[00:02:21] They sounded down the nave

[00:02:25] For all the souls of

[00:02:26] Little boys at St Sebastian

[00:02:30] Too young to save

[00:02:33] Kyrie eleison eleison

[00:02:39] Christe eleison eleison

[00:02:46] You've brought such shame on us

[00:02:48] But mama I didn't know

[00:02:50] For lunch at St Sebastian

[00:02:53] Country cheese and

[00:02:54] Buttered bread

[00:02:57] A prayer we never

[00:02:58] Learned sung in latin

[00:03:01] Then a midday nap

[00:03:04] In a makeshift bed

[00:03:07] Then the music of the ringing

[00:03:12] Then the music of our singing

[00:03:17] And we were singing kyrie eleison

[00:03:23] Kyrie eleison

[00:03:27] We should have known we should

[00:03:30] Have known

[00:03:30] They should have warned us

[00:03:32] Should have warned

[00:03:33] At St Sebastian

[00:03:34] At st

[00:03:35] They never spared the rod

[00:03:41] But in the music of the

[00:03:43] Bells at St Sebastian

[00:03:46] We looked for God

[00:03:50] Kyrie ahhh ahhhh

[00:04:00] Ahhh
