《Watercolor Ponies(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Watercolor Ponies - Wayne Watson

[00:00:41] There are watercolour ponies

[00:00:45] On my refrigerater door

[00:00:50] And the shape of something

[00:00:53] I don't really recognize

[00:01:00] Drawn by careful little fingers

[00:01:04] And put proudly on display

[00:01:09] A reminder to us all

[00:01:13] Of how time flies

[00:01:24] Seems an endless mound of laundry

[00:01:28] And a stairway laced with toys

[00:01:33] Gives a blow by blow

[00:01:36] Reminder of the war

[00:01:42] That we fight for their well-being

[00:01:47] For their greater understanding

[00:01:52] To impart a holy reverance

[00:01:57] For the Lord

[00:02:02] But baby what will we do

[00:02:06] When it comes back to me an you

[00:02:12] They look a little less

[00:02:14] Like little boys every day

[00:02:20] Oh the pleasure of watching

[00:02:23] The children growing

[00:02:26] Is mixed with a bitter cup

[00:02:30] Of knowing the watercolour ponies

[00:02:35] Will one day ride away

[00:02:45] And the vision can get so narrow

[00:02:49] As you view through your tiny world

[00:02:54] And little victories can go by

[00:02:58] With no applause

[00:03:03] But in the greater evaluation

[00:03:08] As they fly from your nest of love

[00:03:13] May they mount up with wings

[00:03:16] As eagles for His cause

[00:03:27] Still I wonder baby what will we do

[00:03:33] When it comes back to me an you

[00:03:37] They look a little less

[00:03:40] Like little boys every day

[00:03:46] Oh the pleasure of watching

[00:03:49] The children growing

[00:03:51] Is mixed with a bitter cup

[00:03:55] Of knowing the watercolour ponies

[00:04:00] Will one day one day ride away
