《The Beautiful Changes》歌词

[00:00:01] The Beautiful Changes - Julie Covington

[00:00:09] The green covered place that I went to in spring

[00:00:13] With a notebook and what cigarettes I could bring

[00:00:17] The cloverleaf crossing now ties in a ring

[00:00:21] And how the beautiful changes

[00:00:27] When the men with a dream who are never refused

[00:00:31] Drum up the exciting to reap the unused

[00:00:35] The lovers are judged and condemned unaccused

[00:00:39] And the beautiful dies with the harvest

[00:00:46] Now the loveliest creatures that god ever made

[00:00:50] Have all picked a partner and joined the parade

[00:00:54] Where they'll crack up together from making the grade

[00:00:58] And how the beautiful changes

[00:01:04] They pull into the kerb and they crowd out the bars

[00:01:09] Watching an astronaut fall toward mars

[00:01:13] He's talking in clichs that put out the stars

[00:01:17] And the beautiful dies with the harvest

[00:01:23] Too late is the way a man finally learns

[00:01:28] The light of salvation recedes and returns

[00:01:32] As you freeze with the cold

[00:01:34] Or you croak from the burns

[00:01:36] And how the beautiful changes

[00:01:42] In the pink of the sunset high over the park

[00:01:47] The contrails are tracing their spiral and arc

[00:01:51] As the angels turn eastwards to fight back the dark

[00:01:55] And the beautiful dies with the harvest

[00:02:01] With gaps in the fabric regrets never mend

[00:02:06] I've seen the eternities crawl to their end

[00:02:10] The comedown of many a fine feathered friend

[00:02:14] And how the beautiful changes

[00:02:20] There's a fine line between love of living and greed

[00:02:25] Say the men of affairs and deliberate speed

[00:02:29] As the ugly goes into the ground with the seed

[00:02:33] And the beautiful dies with the harvest

[00:02:39] Now the fire of redemption is a guttering flame

[00:02:44] A man is an image before he's a name

[00:02:48] And the deadly arrangement that fixes the game

[00:02:52] Is the way the inhuman is always the same

[00:02:57] And how the beautiful changes

[00:03:01] How the beautiful changes

[00:03:05] How the beautiful changes

[00:03:14] How the beautiful changes
