《Fortress Around Your Heart》歌词

[00:00:00] Fortress Around Your Heart (心中的堡垒) - The Tierney Sutton Band/Tierney Sutton/Christian Jacob/Kevin Axt

[00:00:23] Under the ruins of a walled city

[00:00:26] Crumbling towers in beams of yellow light

[00:00:30] No flags of truce no cries of pity

[00:00:33] The siege guns had been pounding through the night

[00:00:37] It took a day to build the city

[00:00:41] We walked through it's streets in the afternoon

[00:00:45] As I returned across the fields I'd known

[00:00:48] I recognised the walls that I once made

[00:00:52] I had to stop in my tracks for fear

[00:00:55] Of walking on the mines I'd laid

[00:01:13] Then I went off to fight some battle

[00:01:17] That I'd invented inside my head

[00:01:20] Away so long for years and years

[00:01:24] You probably thought or even wished that I was dead

[00:01:28] While the armies all are sleeping

[00:01:32] Beneath the tattered flag we'd made

[00:01:35] I had to stop in my tracks for fear

[00:01:38] Of walking on the mines I'd laid

[00:01:42] And if I've built this fortress around your heart

[00:01:50] Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire

[00:01:57] Then let me build a bridge

[00:02:01] For I cannot fill the chasm

[00:02:04] And let me set the battlements on fire

[00:02:46] This prison has now become your home

[00:02:49] A sentence you seem prepared to pay

[00:02:53] It took a day to build the city

[00:02:56] We walked through it's streets in the afternoon

[00:03:00] As I returned across the lands I'd known

[00:03:04] I recognised the fields where I'd once played

[00:03:07] I had to stop in my tracks for fear

[00:03:11] Of walking on the mines I'd laid

[00:03:14] And if I've built this fortress around your heart

[00:03:22] Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire

[00:03:29] Then let me build a bridge

[00:03:33] For I cannot fill the chasm

[00:03:37] And let me set the battlements

[00:03:41] Let me set the battlements

[00:03:45] Let me set the battlements on fire
