《The Teacher(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Teacher (老师) (Album Version) - Paul Simon (保罗·西蒙)

[00:00:14] There once was a teacher of great renown

[00:00:18] Whose words were like the tablets of stone

[00:00:23] Because it's easier to learn than unlearn

[00:00:28] Because we've passed

[00:00:29] The point of no return

[00:00:32] Gather your goods and follow me

[00:00:36] Or you will surely die

[00:00:40] I was only a child of the city

[00:00:45] My parents were children

[00:00:47] Of immigrant stock

[00:00:50] So we followed as followers go

[00:00:53] Over the mountain with a napkin of snow

[00:00:58] And ate the berries and roots

[00:01:00] That grow along the timberline

[00:01:06] Deeper and deeper the dreamer of

[00:01:09] Love sleeps on a quilt of stars

[00:01:19] It's cold

[00:01:20] Sometimes you can't catch your breath

[00:01:23] It's cold

[00:02:04] Time and abundance thickened his step

[00:02:08] So the teacher divided in two

[00:02:13] One half ate the forests and the fields

[00:02:17] The other half sucked

[00:02:19] All the moisture from the clouds

[00:02:22] And we we were amazed

[00:02:24] At the power of his appetite

[00:02:30] Deeper and deeper the dreamer

[00:02:32] Of love sleeps on a quilt of stars

[00:02:43] Sometimes we don't know who we are

[00:02:48] Sometimes force overpowers us and we cry

[00:02:55] My teacher carry me home

[00:03:01] Carry me home my teacher

[00:03:05] Carry me home

[00:03:09] Carry me home my teacher

[00:03:14] Carry me home

[00:03:18] Carry me home my teacher

[00:03:22] Carry me home
