《Manafon》歌词

[00:00:00] Manafon - David Sylvian (戴维·西尔维恩)

[00:01:24] There's a man down in the valley

[00:01:32] Who doesn't speak in his own tongue

[00:01:40] He bares a grudge against the English

[00:01:47] A tune to which his songs are sung

[00:01:59] There's a man down in the valley

[00:02:06] Who is moving back in time

[00:02:13] It's a physical ascension

[00:02:20] You can watch him as he climbs

[00:02:28] The farmers' wives are at thier windows

[00:02:36] They've seen him wind his way for hours

[00:02:43] They tell the kids to lower their voices

[00:02:51] And pretend that they are out

[00:03:08] There's a man down in the valley

[00:03:15] Trying to stop time in its tracks

[00:03:22] His boots lie heavy on the grasses

[00:03:30] But it keeps on pushing back

[00:03:41] And his wife she was a painter

[00:03:47] But now she stains the alter black

[00:03:55] He's out bird watching on the islands

[00:04:01] And she wishes he'd come back

[00:04:10] There's a man down in the valley

[00:04:17] And he dreams of moving worlds

[00:04:23] Of battles raged against the fury

[00:04:30] That might see him at his best

[00:04:40] There's a man down in the valley

[00:04:49] Don't know his right foot from his left

[00:04:57] Don't know his right foot from his left
