《Looking Glass》歌词

[00:00:00] Looking Glass - Eric Andersen

[00:00:01] Written by：Eric Andersen

[00:00:11] In the cattails a maid did dwell

[00:00:18] She sang sweet songs but she loved as well

[00:00:27] She was a bit over five feet tall

[00:00:34] And she loved no man

[00:00:37] She loved no man

[00:00:44] In her bed many hours we lay

[00:00:50] While the north winds blow and the sparrows play

[00:00:59] And in my hand she placed a key

[00:01:06] Sayin' keep this my love

[00:01:09] Follow me

[00:01:15] So I swore for she knew me well

[00:01:22] I swore this love

[00:01:25] I'd never tell

[00:01:30] She said for me her soul she'd sell

[00:01:37] If she must walk

[00:01:40] The fires of hell

[00:01:45] Her hair it rushed and flowed so long

[00:01:52] On a silken pillow it

[00:01:55] Did belong

[00:02:00] Her eyes were yellow like the mornin' sun

[00:02:07] And they were singin' each one a song

[00:02:14] And her skin was dark

[00:02:17] Like a russet dawn

[00:02:24] Well in her hair would flow my tears

[00:02:31] Of my lonely days and my bitter years

[00:02:39] And on her breast my soul would sail

[00:02:46] And her mouth was as sweet

[00:02:49] Sweet as Ale

[00:02:55] She was to me a golden cup

[00:03:02] That poured me life for me to sup

[00:03:10] And in her heart was a lookin' glass

[00:03:17] And a sturdy ship

[00:03:20] With a highest mast

[00:03:25] For many days I did remain

[00:03:32] Until one day I forgot her name

[00:03:40] Then I knew I'd have to go

[00:03:46] From where the sparrows played

[00:03:49] And the north winds' blow

[00:03:54] But then one day by the cattail pond

[00:04:01] My love was dyin' and then she was gone

[00:04:09] I buried her where the green grass grows

[00:04:16] And there she slept

[00:04:19] 'Til the winter snows

[00:04:26] So I sang my sorrow to the trees

[00:04:33] And they said go sing it to the breeze

[00:04:40] Well I knew this love no man could believe

[00:04:47] So I buried my sorrow my heart and my key
