《Coldest Winter In Memory (2005 Digital Remaster)》歌词

[00:00:00] Coldest Winter In Memory (2005 Digital Remaster) - Al Stewart

[00:00:04] The coldest winter in memory was 1709

[00:00:12] The sea froze off the coast of

[00:00:15] France all along the Neptune line

[00:00:20] By the lost town of Dunwich the shore was washed away

[00:00:28] They say you hear the church bells still

[00:00:31] As they toll beneath the waves

[00:00:38] Come all you earthly princes

[00:00:42] Wheresoever you may be

[00:00:46] From the Sun King in the court of

[00:00:49] France to the Czar in Muscovy

[00:00:54] Take heed of Charles of Sweden

[00:00:58] The Lion North of the North

[00:01:02] On the cracked earth of summer

[00:01:06] With his army he goes forth

[00:01:14] Guardian angels wherever you may be

[00:01:21] Reach down and keep my soul for me

[00:01:32] I was there amongst that number

[00:01:37] I heard the trumpets strain

[00:01:41] I saw the host of banners

[00:01:44] Spread across the Polish plain

[00:01:49] Those who stood against us

[00:01:53] They soon were swept away

[00:01:57] They may have the numbers

[00:02:01] But it's Charles shall have the day

[00:02:07] We cut our way through forests

[00:02:11] Crossed on frozen streams

[00:02:16] They fell away before us like a murmur in a dream

[00:02:23] And they burned the land around us

[00:02:27] As snow was closing in

[00:02:31] And the arms of winter took us

[00:02:35] As we fired against the wind

[00:02:40] Guardian angels wherever you may be

[00:02:48] Reach down and keep my soul for me

[00:03:26] Through all the courts of Europe

[00:03:29] There's a rumor from the East

[00:03:34] The kings have come to battle

[00:03:37] And it's Charles who's known defeat

[00:03:42] They'll shake their heads

[00:03:43] And wonder at how this came to be

[00:03:50] But it's nights without a shelter

[00:03:54] That have made an end for me

[00:04:00] Now Charles is fled to Turkey

[00:04:04] Left his men afar

[00:04:08] And they'll be marched through Moscow now

[00:04:12] As prisoners of the Czar

[00:04:16] And had I but known last summer

[00:04:20] What I know understand

[00:04:24] I'd have never set my foot inside

[00:04:28] This bleak and bitter land

[00:04:34] Guardian angels wherever you may be

[00:04:41] Reach down and keep my soul for me

[00:04:49] The coldest winter in memory was 1709

[00:04:57] The sea froze off the coast of

[00:04:59] France all along the Neptune line

[00:05:04] By the lost town of Dunwich

[00:05:09] The shore was washed away

[00:05:13] They say you hear the church bells still

[00:05:16] As they toll beneath the waves
