《You Say the Battle Is Over》歌词

[00:00:00] You Say the Battle Is Over - Bevan Gardiner

[00:00:04] Composer：D. Mallett

[00:00:09] And you say that the battle is over

[00:00:13] FInally the war is all done

[00:00:17] Go tell it to those

[00:00:19] With the wind in their nose

[00:00:20] Who run from the sound of the gun

[00:00:24] And write it on the sides

[00:00:26] Of the great whaling ships

[00:00:28] Or on ice floes where conscience is tossed

[00:00:32] With the wind in their eyes

[00:00:34] It is they who must die

[00:00:36] And we who must measure the loss

[00:00:41] And you say that the battle is over

[00:00:45] And finally the world is at peace

[00:00:49] You mean no one is dying

[00:00:51] And mothers don't weep

[00:00:53] Or it's not in the papers at least

[00:00:57] There are those who would deal

[00:00:58] In the darkness of life

[00:01:00] There are those who would tear down the sun

[00:01:04] And most men are ruthless

[00:01:06] But some will still weep

[00:01:08] When the gifts we were given are gone

[00:01:18] For the blame cannot rest

[00:01:19] On the heads of a few

[00:01:21] It's become such a part of the race

[00:01:25] It's eternally tragic

[00:01:27] That which is magic

[00:01:29] Be killed at the end of the glorious chase

[00:01:34] From young seals to great whales

[00:01:36] From waters to wood

[00:01:38] They will fall just like weeds in the wind

[00:01:41] With perfumes and fur coats

[00:01:43] And trophies on walls

[00:01:45] What a hell of a race to call men

[00:01:55] And you say that the battle is over

[00:01:59] Finally the war is all done

[00:02:02] Go tell it to those

[00:02:04] With the wind in their nose

[00:02:06] Who run from the sound of the gun

[00:02:10] And write it on the sides

[00:02:12] Of the great whaling ships

[00:02:14] Or on ice floes where conscience is tossed

[00:02:17] With the wind in their eyes

[00:02:19] It is they who must die

[00:02:21] And we who must measure the loss

[00:02:25] With the wind in their eyes

[00:02:27] It is they who must die

[00:02:29] And we who will measure the cost
