《Sweet William》歌词

[00:00:00] Sweet William - Johnny Flynn

[00:00:04] I was born with this story it's older than I

[00:00:09] Yet you when you hear it you'll know in the sky

[00:00:15] In the wind of your knowledge in the cut of your jib

[00:00:20] That the fibre of wind is as new from my lip

[00:00:25] As was ever and more

[00:00:28] And ever will be

[00:00:30] 'Til the union we face casts us finally free

[00:00:41] For we in the love of an earth bidden dance

[00:00:45] Stand enthralled of that

[00:00:48] Which from heaven perchance

[00:00:50] Let's us move with the gifts we were given in grace

[00:00:56] And smile in the arms of sweet William's embrace

[00:01:09] William's wanderings took him abroad

[00:01:14] Showed him the lay of the searcher's long road

[00:01:19] To the place he stood now 'neath the black laden sky

[00:01:24] And the crook of his father had brought fortune nigh

[00:01:29] Read the sign where he looked

[00:01:32] Not the bull nor the bear

[00:01:34] Nor a burly red lion or the tortoise and hare

[00:01:45] For we in the love of an earth bidden dance

[00:01:49] Stand enthralled of that

[00:01:52] Which from heaven perchance

[00:01:55] Lets us move with the gifts we were given in grace

[00:02:00] And smile in the arms of sweet William's embrace

[00:02:13] The end of the world was the name of the Inn

[00:02:18] Said fair William farewell to the world and it's sin

[00:02:28] It's sin

[00:02:33] Full balmy was the winter air

[00:02:36] All wet with what might die

[00:02:39] A wishing well the ocean bear

[00:02:41] A millpond in his eyes

[00:02:44] A glance to see from whence he came

[00:02:46] For William with a landlocked turn

[00:02:49] Vermin what he stood to lose

[00:02:51] The skin shot snakes and earthy worms

[00:02:56] His boots trod soft inside the inn

[00:02:59] His greeted all was here

[00:03:01] Abrasive lowly nods came back

[00:03:04] Then bent toward their beer

[00:03:06] They must know I thought willy now

[00:03:09] They've seen me come from miles

[00:03:11] The thought was struck as whisky poured

[00:03:14] And barmen gave all smiles

[00:03:19] Then followed this a curious thing

[00:03:24] The eldest of the host

[00:03:29] Sang softly where he sat and drank

[00:03:34] To love a worthy toast

[00:03:39] His song was of a stranger

[00:03:45] Summoned for his rope

[00:03:50] In all would be to set us free

[00:03:55] His song was strong and bold

[00:03:59] It went

[00:04:01] For we in the love of an earth bidden dance

[00:04:05] Stand enthralled of that

[00:04:07] Which from heaven perchance

[00:04:10] Lets us move with the gifts we were given in grace

[00:04:16] And smile in the arms of sweet William's embrace

[00:04:28] I was born with this story it's older than I

[00:04:33] And yet you when you hear it you'll know in the sky

[00:04:38] In the wind of your knowledge in the cut of your jib

[00:04:43] That the fibre of wind is as new from my lip

[00:04:48] As was ever and more

[00:04:51] And ever will be

[00:04:53] 'Til the union we face casts us finally free
