《Scanning These Crowds(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Scanning These Crowds - Bruce Cockburn

[00:00:16] I was half asleep in the washroom

[00:00:21] When they came in

[00:00:25] Eyes like moonlight on barbed wire

[00:00:29] And veins showing under the skin

[00:00:33] The uniforms made me nervous

[00:00:36] I got ready for the chase

[00:00:39] But they left me scanning these

[00:00:43] Crowds for some sign of your face

[00:00:55] Something fell on saskatchewan

[00:00:59] In 1885

[00:01:04] Where is it now that we need it

[00:01:08] In this century of jive

[00:01:11] The axe falls as if through water

[00:01:16] Never leaves a trace

[00:01:18] And I'm scanning these crowds

[00:01:22] For some sign of your face

[00:01:33] The world shot down love as a spy

[00:01:38] Once upon a time ago

[00:01:41] Now people stand around here

[00:01:46] Like crows in the snow

[00:01:50] Like the shadow of the rope on louis riel

[00:01:54] The look so clean out of place

[00:01:57] And I'm scanning these crowds

[00:02:01] For some sign of your face

[00:02:41] Though storms may still kiss

[00:02:42] The grasslands

[00:02:45] With primal fire

[00:02:48] In the land of passive revolution

[00:02:54] Everything's for hire

[00:02:57] Are they demons are they lemmings

[00:03:00] Or just the humans in this place

[00:03:03] Lord I'm scanning these crowds

[00:03:08] For some sign of your face

[00:03:15] Scanning these crowds

[00:03:18] For some sign of your face
