《Mismatch(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Mismatch (错配) (LP版) - Harry Chapin

[00:00:47] At first you seemed just like my dream of a finer better life

[00:00:52] Much more than I could ask for in a lover or a wife

[00:00:59] Though I work with my body and my work makes my hands rough

[00:01:04] There are gentle things inside me that are anythin' but tough

[00:01:10] There are lessons you could teach me things I do not know

[00:01:16] Things I've never done girl and places we could go

[00:01:22] But you only wear your tailored suits for me to rip and tear

[00:01:27] Ah can't I hold you quietly and smell your perfumed hair

[00:01:33] I saw you as the answer that I never dared to dream

[00:01:39] I saw you as the window into a world I'd never seen

[00:01:45] I saw you as the vision come to raise me from the mud

[00:01:50] But you came to use my sweat to cool the fever in your blood

[00:02:20] I'm not Marlon Brando on his motorcycle bike

[00:02:26] When you call me your animal it's a name I do not like

[00:02:31] Oh please do not tear my back yes of course I bleed

[00:02:37] The violence you thirst for is not what I need

[00:02:43] Your silken skin is armor that begs for brutal hands

[00:02:49] But why can't I be gentle and tell you of my plans

[00:02:54] And I know now that you're usin' me not I just usin' you

[00:03:00] And you're not so scared of losin' me as I of losin' you

[00:03:29] At first you seemed just like my dream of a finer better life

[00:03:35] Much more than I could ask for in a lover or a wife

[00:03:41] Though I work with my body and my work makes my hands rough

[00:03:46] There are gentle things inside me that are anythin' but tough

[00:03:52] I saw you as the answer that I never dared to dream

[00:03:58] I saw you as the window into a world I'd never seen

[00:04:04] I saw you as the vision come to raise me from the mud

[00:04:09] But you came to use my sweat to cool the fever in your blood
