《Melba from Melbourne》歌词

[00:00:00] Melba From Melbourne - Marty Robbins

[00:00:02] Written by：Marty Robbins

[00:00:09] Once I had a silly notion to out across the ocean

[00:00:14] The future for me didn't look to bright

[00:00:18] So I signed up with a tanker

[00:00:20] Got on board and raised the anchor

[00:00:22] Stood and watched the golden gate fade out of sight

[00:00:26] Nineteen days and nights we travelled

[00:00:29] Through the stormy seas we battled

[00:00:31] 'Till we landed in Australia far away

[00:00:35] Far from friends and San Francisco

[00:00:37] And the miss I thought I'll miss so

[00:00:40] 'Till I stepped ashore in Melbourne that first day

[00:00:44] But I met Melba from Melbourne she made my heart yearn

[00:00:49] She made my tears flow like wine

[00:00:53] She let me kiss her then made me miss her

[00:00:57] 'Cause Melba could never be mine

[00:01:18] So in love but couldn't get her

[00:01:20] Cared so much couldn't forget het

[00:01:23] I fell in love just a little bit more and more

[00:01:27] There I was just like I started

[00:01:28] All alone and broken hearted

[00:01:31] I recall the day I left Australia's shore

[00:01:35] I was standing there and tryin'

[00:01:38] So hard to keep from crying

[00:01:40] The more I tried the more my tears would show

[00:01:44] Then a cold breeze seem to whisper

[00:01:46] It's the end you better kiss her

[00:01:48] So I kissed her and I turned away to go

[00:01:52] Then I left Melba from Melbourne

[00:01:55] She made my heart yearn

[00:01:58] She made my tears flow like wine

[00:02:02] She wouldn't leave there

[00:02:04] I couldn't stay there

[00:02:06] So Melba could never be mine
