《For a Dancer(Single Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] For A Dancer (Single Version) - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)

[00:00:02] Keep a fire burning in your eye

[00:00:06] Pay attention to the open sky

[00:00:10] You never know what will be coming down

[00:00:19] I don't remember losing track of you

[00:00:24] You were always dancing in and out of view

[00:00:29] I must have thought you'd always be around

[00:00:39] Always keeping things real by playing the clown

[00:00:44] Now you're nowhere to be found

[00:00:57] I don't know what happens when people die

[00:01:01] Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try

[00:01:05] It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear

[00:01:10] That I can't sing

[00:01:12] I can't help listening

[00:01:15] And I can't help feeling stupid standing round

[00:01:20] Crying as they ease you down

[00:01:25] Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing

[00:01:31] Dancing our sorrow away

[00:01:37] (right on dancing)

[00:01:38] No matter what fate chooses to play

[00:01:41] (there's nothing you can do about it anyway)

[00:01:45] Just do the steps that you've been shown

[00:01:49] By everyone you've ever known

[00:01:57] Until the dance becomes your very own

[00:02:02] No matter how close to yours

[00:02:05] Another's steps have grown

[00:02:10] In the end there is one dance you'll do alone

[00:03:01] Keep a fire for the human race

[00:03:05] Let your prayers go drifting into space

[00:03:10] You never know what will be coming down

[00:03:19] Perhaps a better world is drawing near

[00:03:23] And just as easily it could all disappear

[00:03:28] Along with whatever meaning you might have found

[00:03:37] Don't let the uncertainty turn you around

[00:03:42] (the world keeps turning around and around)

[00:03:44] Go on and make a joyful sound

[00:03:48] Into a dancer you have grown

[00:03:53] From a seed somebody else has thrown

[00:04:00] Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own

[00:04:05] And somewhere between the time you arrive

[00:04:10] And the time you go

[00:04:12] May lie a reason you were alive

[00:04:16] But you'll never know
