《Hero And Heroine(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:04] Hero And Heroine - The Strawbs

[00:00:19] Hero's face was gaunt and tanned

[00:00:21] His sail was set in search of land

[00:00:24] His life-raft, solely by him manned

[00:00:25] Was guided by the tide

[00:00:27] Heroine wore fleecy white

[00:00:29] She beckoned like some saviour bright

[00:00:31] Shipwrecked sailors in the night

[00:00:33] Were bid welcome to her side.

[00:00:44] Where one man's search must surely cease

[00:00:47] The irresistible white fleece

[00:00:49] Led Hero in search of the peace

[00:00:51] Which she alone could offer

[00:00:53] Nothing he knelt before her feet

[00:00:54] Wary lest their eyes should meet

[00:00:56] He knew his life was incomplete

[00:00:58] For he had yet to suffer.

[00:01:17] Enticing Heroine, so calm

[00:01:20] Took Hero firmly by the arm

[00:01:21] Told him that she meant no harm

[00:01:23] That she alone could save him

[00:01:25] Hero could no longer speak

[00:01:27] While realising he was weak

[00:01:29] His life increasingly grew bleak

[00:01:31] For all the love she gave to him.

[00:02:05] While storm clouds gathered high above

[00:02:07] The heroine he grew to love

[00:02:09] Turned slowly to a snow white dove

[00:02:11] And spread her wings to fly

[00:02:13] Crushed and broken in the end

[00:02:15] Hero watched his soul ascend

[00:02:17] Knowing that he was condemned

[00:02:19] To sail all alone to die.
