《What You Sow You Reap》歌词

[00:00:01] artist：john martyn

[00:00:03] songs title：ballad of an elder woman

[00:00:19] now woman, don't you feel sad when you see your life go round

[00:00:26] and you realise you've been drinking all of your years like wine?

[00:00:33] you're gambling with time and you know you just can't win

[00:00:40] but still you feel that somehow you've just got to keep on trying

[00:00:48] and woman, it's your heart i hear crying

[00:00:58] now the young man by your side is your husband, or so you say

[00:01:05] in reality, he's a link with a past you just can't replace

[00:01:14] you tell the world you're happy when you're lying in his arms

[00:01:19] oh, but his youth has made you hate to see his face

[00:01:27] and woman, it's your heart i see crying

[00:01:53] now you're standing like some tree, oh, and the blossom has blown away

[00:01:59] and the last leaf has gone crumbling tumbling towards the ground

[00:02:07] you have nothing to teach me, just have nothing at all to say

[00:02:13] except to keep on telling me about all the happiness that you do think you have found
