《American Tune》歌词

[00:00:02] American Tune - Kurt Elling

[00:00:05] Written by：Paul Simon

[00:00:29] Many is the time I've been mistaken

[00:00:36] And many times confused

[00:00:42] Yes and I've also felt forsaken

[00:00:49] And certainly misused

[00:00:56] But I'm alright

[00:00:59] I'm alright

[00:01:02] I'm just weary to my bones

[00:01:10] Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant

[00:01:17] So far away from home

[00:01:23] So far away from home

[00:01:40] I don't know a soul who's not been battered

[00:01:47] I don't have a friend who feels at ease

[00:01:53] I don't know a dream that's not been shattered

[00:02:01] Or driven to it's knees

[00:02:07] But it's alright

[00:02:11] It's alright

[00:02:12] 'Cos we have lived so well so long

[00:02:21] Still when I think about the road we're travelling on

[00:02:28] I wonder what's gone wrong

[00:02:34] I can't help it I wonder what's gone wrong

[00:02:45] And I dreamed I was dying

[00:02:51] I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly

[00:02:58] And looking back down at me smiled reassuringly

[00:03:04] And I dreamed I was flying

[00:03:10] And from high up above my eyes could clearly see the statue of liberty

[00:03:20] Sailing away to sea

[00:03:24] And I dreamed I was flying

[00:04:35] And we come on the ship they call mayflower

[00:04:41] We come on the ship that sailed the moon

[00:04:48] We come in the ages most uncertain hour

[00:04:55] And we sing an American tune

[00:05:01] Oh but it's alright

[00:05:05] It's alright it's alright

[00:05:08] You can't be forever blessed

[00:05:16] Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day

[00:05:23] And I'm trying to get some rest

[00:05:29] That's all I'm just trying

[00:05:32] To get some rest
