《In The Distance》歌词

[00:00:00] In The Distance - Lost Dogs

[00:00:11] I watch the moonlight hit her window

[00:00:16] It weaves bright diamonds through her hair

[00:00:22] But I have tarried in these shadows

[00:00:28] In hopes she will not see me here

[00:00:34] I don't know what I've been thinking

[00:00:40] I should move on to other business

[00:00:45] I've promised I would be strong

[00:00:52] And only watch her in the distance

[00:01:09] I know the war claimed her young husband

[00:01:15] And so her life's been mighty rough

[00:01:21] And she doesn't need more sorrow

[00:01:27] I have given her enough

[00:01:33] So I will try to keep my mind off

[00:01:38] My poor aching heart's insistence

[00:01:44] She must learn to live without me

[00:01:50] So I'll just watch her in the distance

[00:02:08] I recall the fight in Franklin

[00:02:13] A Yankee bullet laid me down

[00:02:19] That night I watched her in the graveyard

[00:02:25] Where they put me in the ground

[00:02:31] That's when I heard the angels calling

[00:02:37] And felt the pul of love's resistance

[00:02:43] So the Good Lord let me linger

[00:02:48] So I could watch her in the distance

[00:03:06] If I wrapped cold arms around her

[00:03:12] If I gently spoke her name

[00:03:18] She couldn't bare my haunted whisper

[00:03:23] And so there's nothing to be gained

[00:03:29] Perhaps my time has come for leaving

[00:03:35] Time to lay down all my defenses

[00:03:41] And be content with having loved her

[00:03:48] Even in the distance

[00:03:53] For I've been blessed for having loved her

[00:03:58] Even in the distance
