《The Town I Loved So Well》歌词

[00:00:00] The Town I Loved So Well (我曾深爱的小镇) - Shannon Singers

[00:00:21] In my memory i will always see

[00:00:30] The town that i have loved so well

[00:00:39] Where our school played ball by the gas yard wall

[00:00:48] And they laughed through the smoke and the smell

[00:00:57] Going home in the rain running up the dark lane

[00:01:06] Past the jail and down behind the fountain

[00:01:15] Those were happy days in so many many ways

[00:01:24] In the town i loved so well

[00:01:33] In the early morning the shirt factory horn

[00:01:42] Called women from creggan the moor and the bog

[00:01:51] While the men on the dole played a mother's role

[00:02:00] Fed the children and then walked the dog

[00:02:09] And when times got tough there was just about enough

[00:02:18] And they saw it through without complaining

[00:02:27] For deep inside was a burning pride

[00:02:36] In the town i loved so well

[00:02:55] There was music there in the derry air

[00:03:03] Like a language that we all could understand

[00:03:13] I remember the day that i earned my first pay

[00:03:22] When i played in a small pick up band

[00:03:31] There i spent my youth and to tell you the truth

[00:03:40] I was sad to leave it all behind me

[00:03:49] For i learned about life and i found a wife

[00:03:58] In the town i loved so well

[00:04:07] But when i returned how my eyes have burned

[00:04:16] To see how a town could be brought to it's knees

[00:04:25] By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars

[00:04:34] And the gas that hangs on to every breeze

[00:04:43] Now the army's installed by that old gas yard wall

[00:04:52] And the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher

[00:05:01] With their tanks and their guns

[00:05:06] Oh my god what have they done

[00:05:10] To the town i loved so well

[00:05:19] Now the music's gone but they carry on

[00:05:28] For their spirits been bruised never broken

[00:05:37] They will not forget but their hearts are set

[00:05:46] On tomorrow and peace once again

[00:05:55] For what's done is done and what's won is won

[00:06:04] And what's lost is lost and gone for ever

[00:06:13] I can only pray for a bright brand new day

[00:06:22] In the town i love so well
