《The Day After That》歌词

[00:00:00] The Day After That (From "Kiss of the Spider Woman") - Anthony Crivello

[00:00:14] It was made out of mud

[00:00:16] And pieces of tin

[00:00:17] And boxes nailed together

[00:00:20] Cardboard boxes

[00:00:22] My castle

[00:00:25] My home

[00:00:31] And we slept on the floor

[00:00:32] My sister and I

[00:00:34] With gunny sacks for our pillows

[00:00:37] Coughing hungry cosy

[00:00:42] My home

[00:00:47] And every Sunday on our knees

[00:00:52] We would thank the Lord

[00:00:55] For his bountiful blessings

[00:01:06] And our mother poured soup

[00:01:07] Into little cracked bowls

[00:01:08] As she spoke of something better

[00:01:11] Beef steak maybe someday

[00:01:17] My home

[00:01:22] And that lady had eyes

[00:01:24] That were empty and cold

[00:01:25] At the ripe old age of thirty

[00:01:28] Death came

[00:01:31] Welcome

[00:01:33] To my home

[00:01:38] And still that Sunday

[00:01:41] On our knees

[00:01:43] How we thanked the Lord

[00:01:46] For his bountiful blessings

[00:01:51] And my sister and I

[00:01:53] Swore the day that we left

[00:01:54] There'd be no more children like us

[00:01:57] In the filth there in the heat there

[00:02:01] In the smell there

[00:02:04] And no more Sundays

[00:02:09] On our knees

[00:02:11] Would we thank the Lord

[00:02:13] For his bountiful blessings

[00:02:18] And we came to the city

[00:02:20] And begged for our food

[00:02:21] Then one April day we heard it

[00:02:25] Thunder rumbling

[00:02:28] One man speaking

[00:02:31] Thousands singing

[00:02:39] Someday we'll be free

[00:02:40] I promise you we'll be free

[00:02:42] If not tomorrow

[00:02:45] Then the day after that

[00:02:48] And the candles in our hands

[00:02:51] Will illuminate this land

[00:02:52] If not tomorrow

[00:02:56] Then the day after that

[00:03:00] And the world that gives us pain

[00:03:02] That fills our lives with fear

[00:03:04] On the day after that

[00:03:06] Will disappear

[00:03:10] And the war we've fought to win

[00:03:14] I promise you we will win

[00:03:17] If not tomorrow

[00:03:20] Then the day after that

[00:03:23] Or the day after that

[00:03:26] Someday we'll be free

[00:03:27] I promise you we'll be free

[00:03:29] If not tomorrow

[00:03:31] If not tomorrow

[00:03:33] Then Or the day after that

[00:03:35] Then Or the day after that

[00:03:37] And the candles in our hands

[00:03:39] Will illuminate this land

[00:03:41] If not tomorrow

[00:03:43] If not tomorrow

[00:03:45] Then the day after that

[00:03:47] Then the day after that

[00:03:49] And the world that gives us pain

[00:03:52] That fills our lives with fear

[00:03:53] On the day after that

[00:03:55] Will disappear

[00:03:58] Will disappear Will disappear

[00:04:04] And the war we've fought to win

[00:04:09] I promise you we will win

[00:04:12] If not tomorrow

[00:04:14] Then the day after that

[00:04:16] Or the day after that

[00:04:18] Or the day after that

[00:04:19] Or the day after that

[00:04:21] Or the day after that

[00:04:23] Or the day

[00:04:25] After that
