《The Box》歌词

[00:00:00] The Box (盒子) - Ameritz Tribute Standards (阿莫瑞兹致敬标准)

[00:00:07] On the top shelf in the closet

[00:00:10] In the workshop where he spent his extra time

[00:00:15] Was a dust wooden box that

[00:00:20] I had never noticed till that time

[00:00:24] And we set on the table and

[00:00:29] Carefully we opened up the top

[00:00:33] And stared into the memory

[00:00:37] Daddy kept inside the box

[00:00:42] There was a letter from mamma

[00:00:47] When she went out to Reno

[00:00:49] To help her sister out in 62

[00:00:54] And a flower from Hawaii

[00:00:58] When they went on vacation

[00:01:01] It was the first time that my Daddy ever flew

[00:01:06] And the pocket knife I gave to him on Fathers day

[00:01:13] Years ago I thought it had been lost

[00:01:18] We all thought his heart was made from solid rock

[00:01:23] That was long before we found the box

[00:01:30] I guess we always knew it

[00:01:37] But I love you was hard for him to say

[00:01:42] Some men show it easy

[00:01:46] And some just never seem to find the way

[00:01:51] That night I began to see

[00:01:56] The softer side of some I had lost

[00:02:00] I saw the love he kept inside

[00:02:04] And first time we opened up the box

[00:02:09] There was a picture that was taken

[00:02:13] When he and Mom were dating

[00:02:16] Standing by his 1944 and the faded leather Bible

[00:02:25] He got when he was baptised

[00:02:28] I guess no one understood him like the Lord

[00:02:33] And the poem that he had written about his wife and children

[00:02:40] The tender words he spoke were quite a shock

[00:02:44] We all thought his heart was made of solid rock

[00:02:50] But that was long before we found the box

[00:02:57] We all thought his heart was made of solid rock

[00:03:02] But that was long before we found the box
