《John Train’s Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] John Train's Blues - Simon Joyner

[00:00:38] The ripples crawl into the past as easily as they travel forward

[00:00:53] Across the mast to seduce the sails which sway above an anchor

[00:01:10] Into the ocean of your yearning blue and vast and unrestrained

[00:01:26] It's here not there that they reside unsettling

[00:01:34] What's remained unsettling what's remained

[00:02:05] I will not speak of love with words that sting or fertilise flowers

[00:02:20] I do not wish to flatter or to sling uneasy arrows at flesh harbours

[00:02:36] Where swims the ache of eternity bedridden but never sleeping

[00:02:51] Cause it's here where all the hope hides out to

[00:02:58] Listen to the ancient beating to listen to the ancient beating

[00:03:28] I watch a bottle tangle with a girl made out of paper

[00:03:43] It all happened so fast I and in the pitch black

[00:03:50] I didn't see him rape her

[00:03:59] But I found her ripped and soaking the bottle staggered off confused

[00:04:14] The shattered himself against a post After whistling

[00:04:22] John Trains Blues After whistling John Trains Blues

[00:04:54] I changed when you died and I never returned It rained around my eyes

[00:05:07] We painted and paraded our memories and planted yew in the hillsides

[00:05:22] From the cracks in your bone grew a grey stone and now I visit you instead

[00:05:37] Your cowboy dreams are gold dust gathering in the fountains of my

[00:05:48] Head in the fountains of my head

[00:06:16] When the firing squad of loneliness discharges in the darkness

[00:06:30] A child will rip at the grass to teach his new found tongue a question

[00:06:45] Between my head and my boots

[00:06:48] I take and blend all these colours of the rainbow

[00:07:00] And the ladders in my eyes extend into what

[00:07:09] I do not know into what I do not know
