《Standing In The Breach》歌词

[00:00:00] Standing In The Breach - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)

[00:00:10] Although the Earth may tremble

[00:00:12] And our foundation crack

[00:00:19] We are all assembled

[00:00:22] And we will build them back

[00:00:27] And let's just say the lives remain

[00:00:31] And held within our reach

[00:00:36] Try to put our world together

[00:00:40] Standing in the breach

[00:00:45] So many live in poverty

[00:00:49] While others live like Kings

[00:00:54] Though some may find peace

[00:00:56] And acceptance in all that living brings

[00:01:01] I will never understand

[00:01:06] How ever they've prepared

[00:01:11] How one life is struck down

[00:01:14] And another life is spared

[00:01:20] Though the earth may tremble

[00:01:23] And cast our work aside

[00:01:28] Though their efforts resembled

[00:01:32] The fluctuations of time

[00:01:36] We rise and fall with the trust

[00:01:40] And belief and love redeems our seed

[00:01:45] And our backs and the hearts

[00:01:48] Together standing in the breech

[00:01:54] You don't know why

[00:01:57] It's such a far cry in what

[00:01:59] This world could be

[00:02:03] You don't know why

[00:02:05] But you still try for the world you wish to see

[00:02:11] You don't know how it will happen

[00:02:14] Now after all that's come undone

[00:02:19] But you know the change

[00:02:22] That the world needs now is there in everyone

[00:03:13] The unpaid debts of history

[00:03:17] The open wounds of time

[00:03:22] The laws of Human Nature always

[00:03:26] Tugging from behind

[00:03:30] I want to think that the earth can heal

[00:03:34] And the people might still learn

[00:03:38] How to meet this world's true challenges

[00:03:42] And if it costs their own can turn

[00:03:48] Though the earth may tremble and

[00:03:51] The ocean's pitching arrives

[00:03:56] We are all assembled

[00:04:00] And we will lift our eyes

[00:04:04] To the tasks that we know lie before us

[00:04:09] And the power of our press besieged

[00:04:13] And lift our souls into

[00:04:16] The Heavens standing in the breach

[00:04:23] You don't know why

[00:04:25] It's such a far cry from

[00:04:27] What this world can be

[00:04:31] You don't know why

[00:04:33] But you still try for

[00:04:36] The world you wish to see

[00:04:39] You don't know how

[00:04:41] It will happen now

[00:04:43] For all that's come undone

[00:04:47] But you know the world you waiting for

[00:04:52] May not come may not come

[00:04:56] But you know the change the world needs

[00:05:00] Now is there in everyone
