《Rainbow River》歌词

[00:00:00] Rainbow River (彩虹河) - Vashti Bunyan

[00:00:47] The rainbow river is a laughing stream

[00:00:52] Down in a valley by a mountain that is pine tree tall

[00:00:58] The rainbow river has a small boy fishing with a worm

[00:01:05] And a jam jar by the waterfall

[00:01:10] Don't make a sound don't disturb the ground

[00:01:16] The biggest fish you ever saw is around

[00:01:22] And the rainbow river gives a rainbow fish

[00:01:28] As one small boy goes running proudly to his mother's call

[00:01:37] The stonebuilt farmhouse is a rough stone cottage

[00:01:42] Hiding close against the hillside up a winding track

[00:01:49] The stonebuilt farmhouse has a fair-haired farmer

[00:01:55] Wearing wooden shoes and building up a new haystack

[00:02:02] Run in the door stand on the stone floor

[00:02:08] The oven opens- there's the biggest loaf you ever saw

[00:02:14] And the stonebuilt farmhouse gives a good warm welcome

[00:02:20] As he sits down in his own chair with a Windsor back

[00:02:29] The magpie meadow is a glowing evening colour

[00:02:35] Sun is setting quietly and the boy is tired

[00:02:40] The magpie meadow has a sparrow hawk who hovers

[00:02:46] Hanging on the wind preying eagle eyed

[00:02:53] Sit by the lantern watch as the years turn

[00:02:59] Slowly bringing truth for every child to learn

[00:03:05] And the magpie meadow darkens gently blue now

[00:03:12] As the family sit their faces lit by ember fire
