《A Dear Green Place》歌词

[00:00:00] A Dear Green Place - My Latest Novel

[00:00:25] His is no dream these ghosts are no illusion

[00:00:34] Vandals kids and thieves

[00:00:38] Although we often curse them

[00:00:42] We praise them for their wisdom

[00:00:47] As I try to believe

[00:00:51] What I've read on bus shelters

[00:00:56] Cause that is where the poets

[00:00:59] Don't disguise their accents

[00:01:04] I don't dream how could I ever dream

[00:01:11] When my nightmares are entrances wholly enclosed

[00:01:16] Started and angry my palms are cold

[00:01:20] Stumbling around in my dream

[00:01:23] He said she said

[00:01:30] He said she said

[00:01:49] I don't sing this for them

[00:01:53] But for a bunch of my own heroes

[00:01:58] My weather boy

[00:02:02] These clouds they make me love you more

[00:02:07] We sang you songs you gave us more

[00:02:11] You say that's what you're there for

[00:02:15] But you're more than that

[00:02:19] You're the light

[00:02:26] I don't dream how could I ever dream

[00:02:32] When my nightmares are entrances wholly enclosed

[00:02:37] Started and angry my palms are cold

[00:02:42] Stumbling around in my dream

[00:02:45] He said she said

[00:02:51] He said she said

[00:03:09] The wisecracking sidekicks with knives at their throats

[00:03:13] The sidesplitting tell-tales of harbours and ghosts

[00:03:18] Moonlight sonatas with angels and demons

[00:03:22] And girls and their droves waving kisses to heathens

[00:03:27] Street walking send ups with glints in their eyes

[00:03:30] The smell of stale alcohol lining their sighs

[00:03:35] Saboteurs and swindlers all cast aside

[00:03:39] Diving through orchards to surrender their loots

[00:03:44] A mass in our hearts as we pray for your loss

[00:03:48] Arriving with pity to plunder your feast

[00:03:52] Aloof and self-righteous we all read the tale

[00:03:57] And tussled for ways we could all shift the blame

[00:04:01] Sweet bittersweet are the sounds and the sights

[00:04:06] Bitter and sweet is the sum of our lives

[00:04:12] I don't dream how could I ever dream

[00:04:18] When my nightmares are entrances wholly enclosed

[00:04:23] Started and angry my palms are cold

[00:04:27] Stumbling around in my dream
