《1917(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] 1917 (LP版) - Linda Ronstadt (琳达·朗丝黛)

[00:00:07] The strange young man who comes to me

[00:00:13] A soldier on a three day spree

[00:00:19] He needs one night's cheap ecstasy

[00:00:26] And a woman's arms to hide him

[00:00:31] He greets me with a courtly bow

[00:00:38] And hides his pain by acting proud

[00:00:44] He drinks too much and he laughs too loud

[00:00:51] How can I deny him

[00:00:56] Let us dance beneath the moon

[00:01:02] I'll sing to you Claire de lune

[00:01:08] The morning always comes too soon

[00:01:15] But tonight the war is over

[00:01:24] He speaks to me in schoolboy French

[00:01:30] Of a soldiers life inside a trench

[00:01:36] Of the look of death and the ghastly stench

[00:01:43] I do my best to please him

[00:01:48] He puts two roses in a vase

[00:01:54] Two roses sadly out of place

[00:02:00] Like the gallant smile on his haggard face

[00:02:07] Playfully I tease him

[00:02:12] Hold me Neath the Paris skies

[00:02:18] Let's not talk of how or why

[00:02:24] Tomorrow's soon enough to die

[00:02:31] But tonight the war is over

[00:02:40] We make love too hard too fast

[00:02:46] He falls asleep his face a mask

[00:02:52] He wakes with the shakes and he drinks from his flask

[00:02:59] I put my arms around him

[00:03:04] They die in the trenches and they die in the air

[00:03:10] In Belgium and France the dead are everywhere

[00:03:16] They die so fast there's no time to prepare

[00:03:22] A decent grave to surround them

[00:03:28] Old world glory old world fame

[00:03:34] The old worlds gone gone up in flames

[00:03:39] Nothing will ever be the same

[00:03:46] And nothing lasts forever

[00:03:54] Oh I'd pray for him but I've forgotten how

[00:04:00] And there's nothing nothing that can save him now

[00:04:06] There's always another with the same funny bow

[00:04:13] And who am I to deny them

[00:04:19] Lux aeterna luce at e is

[00:04:23] Domine cum sanctic tu is in aeternum

[00:04:28] Qui a pius es

[00:04:31] Requiem aeternaum dona e is domine

[00:04:40] Qui a pius es

[00:04:43] Requiem aeternaum dona e is domine

[00:04:49] Qui a pius es

[00:04:51] Et lux perpetua luce at e is cum sancris tu is in

[00:04:56] Aeternum qui api us es

[00:04:59] Domine

[00:05:01] Tonight the war is over
