《The Last Nail》歌词

[00:00:15] The Last Nail-Dan Fogelberg

[00:00:25] I saw you running

[00:00:26] Ahead of the crowd

[00:00:28] I chased but never thought

[00:00:32] I'd catch you

[00:00:34] You said you loved me

[00:00:39] But you had to be free

[00:00:41] And I let you

[00:00:43] Why did I let you

[00:00:48] We walked together

[00:00:50] Through the gardens and graves

[00:00:53] I watched you grow

[00:00:57] To be a woman

[00:00:59] Living on promises

[00:01:02] That nobody gave

[00:01:06] To no one

[00:01:09] They were given to no one

[00:01:16] I started listening

[00:01:31] To the wind and the rain

[00:01:34] You strained your ears

[00:01:38] But could hear nothing

[00:01:40] One night I thought

[00:01:44] I heard them

[00:01:45] Whisper my name

[00:01:46] And I went running

[00:01:49] I left a trail of footprints

[00:01:57] Deep in the snow

[00:01:59] I swore one day

[00:02:03] I would retrace them

[00:02:04] But when I turned around

[00:02:09] I found that the wind

[00:02:12] Had erased them

[00:02:14] Now I'll never replace them

[00:02:20] Fly away my sweet bird over the land

[00:02:40] Take life for all the freedom you can

[00:02:46] But if you ever should need a man

[00:02:54] Well the offer still stands

[00:02:57] I hear you've taken on a husband and child

[00:03:27] And live somewhere in Pennsylvania

[00:03:32] I never thought you'd ever sever the string

[00:03:40] But I can't blame you none

[00:03:43] So let the ashes fall

[00:03:51] And lay where they will

[00:03:53] Just say that once

[00:03:56] You used to know me

[00:03:59] One last time sing that old song

[00:04:04] We used to know

[00:04:05] But this time sing

[00:04:08] A little more slowly

[00:04:18] Fly away my sweet bird over the land

[00:04:36] Take life for all the freedom you can

[00:04:43] But if you ever should need a man

[00:04:49] Well the offer still stands
