《October Song》歌词

[00:00:00] October Song-Bert Jansch

[00:00:29] I'll sing you this October song

[00:00:32] There's no song before it

[00:00:35] The words and tune are none of my own

[00:00:38] For my joys and sorrows bore it

[00:00:41] Beside the sea the brambly briars

[00:00:47] In the still of evening

[00:00:50] Birds fly out behind the sun

[00:00:53] And with them I'll be leaving

[00:00:57] The fallen leaves that jewel the ground

[00:01:01] They know the art of dying

[00:01:03] And leave with joy their glad gold hearts

[00:01:07] In scarlet shadows lying

[00:01:10] When hunger calls my footsteps home

[00:01:15] The morning follows after

[00:01:18] L swim the seas within my mind

[00:01:22] And the pine trees laugh green laughter

[00:01:57] L used to search for happiness

[00:02:00] L used to follow pleasure

[00:02:03] But l found a door behind my mind

[00:02:06] And that's the greatest treasure

[00:02:10] For rulers like to lay down laws

[00:02:14] And rebels like to break them

[00:02:17] And the poor priests like to walk in chains

[00:02:28] L met a man whose name was time

[00:02:31] He said I must be going

[00:02:33] But just how long ago that was

[00:02:37] L have no way of knowing

[00:02:40] Sometimes l want to murder time

[00:02:46] Sometimes when my heart's aching

[00:02:49] But mostly l just stroll along

[00:02:52] The path that he is taking

[00:03:02] I'll sing you this October Song

[00:03:04] There is no song before it

[00:03:07] The words and tune are none of my own

[00:03:11] For my joys and sorrows bore it

[00:03:14] Beside the sea the brambly briars

[00:03:21] In the cool of evening

[00:03:24] The birds fly out behind the sun

[00:03:27] And with them I'll be leaving
