《A Celebration Upon Completion》歌词

[00:00:00] A Celebration Upon Completion - Bright Eyes

[00:00:37] My grandfather's name was moon

[00:00:40] Because his eyes were bright and round

[00:00:45] And no amount of time or liquor could dull them

[00:00:52] My grandmother's name was joy

[00:00:56] Because it spilled out of her heart

[00:01:01] And bathed her precious children in its warmth

[00:01:08] And there was happiness in life beyond the sorrow

[00:01:14] And the pain

[00:01:17] But how they ever found it I cannot explain

[00:01:24] I guess time has a way of making everything alright

[00:01:32] It's just there is not enough of it

[00:01:40] And so we drink and we sing and we celebrate

[00:01:47] This lie and hope that it will last

[00:01:57] Morning is here night has passed

[00:02:16] My grandfather was a doctor

[00:02:20] He cured the sick with his kind hands

[00:02:25] And he taught me how to sail and how to find dry land

[00:02:32] My grandmother was all sweetness

[00:02:36] And when she spoke we all heard bells and

[00:02:41] They rang in such a way that we were comforted

[00:02:48] And they held on to each other with all the strength they had

[00:02:56] And they loved with devotion beyond what I understand

[00:03:04] But I guess fear has a way of making sleep unbearable

[00:03:12] And the days seem cold and long

[00:03:20] But we cry and we dance

[00:03:24] And we stumble into love and awkward perfect grace

[00:03:42] The moon is gone and the sun has took its place The moon is gone and the sun has took its place
