《The Girl With The Weight Of The World In Her Hands》歌词

[00:00:00] The Girl With The Weight Of The World In Her Hands - Indigo Girls

[00:00:14] She won't recover from her losses

[00:00:20] She's not chosen this path

[00:00:24] But she watches who it crosses

[00:00:28] Maybe move to the right

[00:00:31] Maybe move to the left

[00:00:35] So we can all see her pain she wears

[00:00:39] Like a banner on her chest

[00:00:43] And we all say it's sad

[00:00:46] And we think it's a shame

[00:00:49] And she's called to our attention

[00:00:54] But we do not call her name

[00:00:58] The girl with the weight

[00:01:01] Of the world in her hands

[00:01:09] Cause we're busy with our happiness

[00:01:14] And busy with our plans

[00:01:17] I wonder if alone she wants it

[00:01:21] Taken from her hands

[00:01:24] But if things didn't keep getting harder

[00:01:31] She might miss her sacred chance

[00:01:34] To go a consecrated martyr

[00:01:39] The girl with the weight

[00:01:42] Of the world in her hands

[00:01:48] I wonder which saint

[00:01:51] That lives inside a bead

[00:01:55] Will grant her consolation

[00:01:58] When she counts upon her need

[00:02:02] It makes us all angry

[00:02:05] Though we feign to care

[00:02:09] But who will be the scale

[00:02:13] To weigh the cross she has to bear

[00:02:17] The girl with the weight

[00:02:20] Of the world in her hands

[00:02:29] Is the glass half full or empty

[00:02:33] I ask her as I fill it

[00:02:36] She said it doesn't really matter

[00:02:40] Pretty soon you're bound to spill it

[00:02:43] With the half logic language

[00:02:47] Of the sermon she delivers

[00:02:50] And the way she smiles so knowingly

[00:02:54] At me gives me the shivers

[00:02:58] I pull the blanket higher

[00:03:02] When I'm finally safe at home

[00:03:05] And she'll take a hundred with her

[00:03:09] But she always sleeps alone

[00:03:13] The girl with the weight

[00:03:17] Of the world in her hands

[00:03:22] I wonder which saint

[00:03:25] That lives inside a bead

[00:03:29] Will grant her consolation

[00:03:33] When she counts upon her need

[00:03:36] It makes us all angry

[00:03:39] Though we feign to care

[00:03:43] But who will be the scale

[00:03:47] To weigh the cross she has to bear

[00:03:51] The girl with the weight

[00:03:55] Of the world in her hands
