《The Gardener》歌词

[00:00:00] The Gardener - Punch Brothers (重击兄弟)

[00:00:08] Lyricist：Punch Brothers

[00:00:16] Producer：Punch Brothers

[00:00:25] There're all kinds of roses

[00:00:28] But none are as handsome as the ones

[00:00:33] That you own hands have grown

[00:00:38] They bring as much hope

[00:00:41] Leave as much satisfaction

[00:00:45] As anything I've ever known

[00:01:17] But it ain't in their petals

[00:01:21] That I'm seeking her fortune

[00:01:24] It's in the weeds and the hedges and lawns

[00:01:30] Of the fortunate people

[00:01:34] Who can stand in their gardens

[00:01:38] And feel only time marching on

[00:01:44] With the world on a string

[00:01:47] To remind them of where they can go

[00:01:52] And what they oughta be

[00:01:55] Without a whole lot to say

[00:01:59] To the fella they pay

[00:02:03] To cut the grass growing underneath their feet

[00:02:39] A rose can't see it's own beauty

[00:02:49] Or feel what it's meant to symbolize

[00:03:05] It doesn't stop and smell anything on it's journey

[00:03:16] From the soil to the light

[00:03:32] Just wants the best for it'self and it's family

[00:03:42] And God help me so do I

[00:03:53] And so does everybody

[00:03:56] So I head out each morning

[00:03:59] With a smile and a wave

[00:04:02] For whomever looks up from their work

[00:04:07] 'Cause who knows in a while

[00:04:11] It could be my own child

[00:04:16] With the world on a string

[00:04:19] To remind her of where they can go

[00:04:24] And what she oughta be

[00:04:27] Without a whole lot to say

[00:04:31] To the fella she pays

[00:04:35] To cut the grass growing underneath her feet

[00:04:44] May green grow the grass undernath our children's feet
