《House of Clocks》歌词

[00:00:01] House Of Clocks - Al Stewart

[00:00:25] I once had a qilded clock

[00:00:27] Constructed in la Belle Epoque

[00:00:30] The hour hand broke now it won't turn back

[00:00:32] So long so long so long

[00:00:35] I once had a sundial too

[00:00:38] But green and wild my garden grew

[00:00:41] The undergrowth obscured the view

[00:00:43] So long so long so long

[00:00:46] Not a word could make her stay

[00:00:49] The East wind blows the sun away

[00:00:51] Oh I lost her on St Swithin's day

[00:00:54] Oh why

[00:01:09] I grew up in a house of clocks

[00:01:11] And late at night I'd sometimes walk

[00:01:14] Listening to their rhythmic talk

[00:01:16] So long so long so long

[00:01:19] Clocks that sand in ringing chimes

[00:01:22] To take the measure of the times

[00:01:25] Clocks that spoke in wordless rhymes

[00:01:27] So long so long so long

[00:01:30] Not a word could make her stay

[00:01:33] The east wind blows the sun away

[00:01:35] I lost her on St Swithin's day

[00:01:38] Oh why

[00:02:05] Not a word could make her stay

[00:02:07] The wine is spilt and flows away

[00:02:10] I lost her on St Swithin's day

[00:02:12] Oh why
