《Town I Loved So Well》歌词

[00:00:00] Town I Loved So Well - Various Artists (欧美群星)

[00:00:17] In my memory I will always see

[00:00:26] The town that I have loved so well

[00:00:34] Where our school played ball by the gasyard wall

[00:00:42] And we laughed through the smoke and the smell

[00:00:51] Going home in the rain running up the dark lane

[00:00:59] Past the jail and down behind the fountain

[00:01:08] Those were happy days in so many many ways

[00:01:16] In the town I loved so well

[00:01:25] In the early morning the shirt-factory horn

[00:01:33] Called women from Craigeen the Moor and the Bog

[00:01:42] While the man on the dole played the mother's role

[00:01:50] Fed the children and then trained the dogs

[00:01:58] And when times got tough

[00:02:03] There was just about enough

[00:02:07] But they saw it through without complaining

[00:02:16] For deep inside was a burning pride

[00:02:24] For the town I loved so well

[00:02:33] There was music there in the Derry air

[00:02:41] Like a language that

[00:02:44] We all could understand

[00:02:50] I remember the day

[00:02:53] When I earned my first pay

[00:02:58] As I played in the small pick-up band

[00:03:06] There I spent my youth

[00:03:10] And to tell you the truth

[00:03:15] I was sad to leave it all behind me

[00:03:23] For I'd learned about life

[00:03:28] And I've found me a wife

[00:03:32] In the town I loved so well

[00:03:41] But when I returned

[00:03:45] How my eyes have burned

[00:03:49] To see how a town

[00:03:53] Could be brought to it's knees

[00:03:58] By the armoured cars

[00:04:02] And the bombed out bars

[00:04:06] And the gas that hangs

[00:04:08] On to every breeze

[00:04:14] Now the army's installed by

[00:04:19] That old gas yard wall

[00:04:23] And the damned barbed

[00:04:25] Wire gets higher and higher

[00:04:31] With their tanks and their guns

[00:04:36] Oh my god what have they done

[00:04:40] To the town I loved so well

[00:04:48] Now the music's gone but they carry on

[00:04:57] For their spirits been bruised never broken

[00:05:05] They will not forget but their hearts are set

[00:05:14] On tomorrow and peace once again

[00:05:22] For what's done is done and

[00:05:27] What's won is won

[00:05:30] And what's lost is lost and gone for ever

[00:05:39] I can only pray for a bright brand new day

[00:05:48] In the town I love so well

[00:05:56] I can only pray for a bright brand-new day

[00:06:04] In the town I loved so well
