《Autumn》歌词

[00:00:00] Autumn - Peter Hammill

[00:00:00] So here we are

[00:00:03] Alone

[00:00:07] Our children have grown up and moved away

[00:00:17] Living their own lives

[00:00:20] They say

[00:00:24] It all seems very strange

[00:00:28] To me

[00:00:31] I don't understand their ways

[00:00:36] Our children amaze me all the time

[00:00:45] And I often wonder why they make me feel

[00:00:50] So sad

[00:00:54] And suddenly old

[00:00:59] Now we're left with an empty home

[00:01:05] From our nest all the birds have flown for foreign skies

[00:01:11] We're discarded of no further use

[00:01:17] Though we gave our kids all our youth and all our live

[00:01:24] We really tried

[00:01:37] Now there's only my wife and me

[00:01:42] We used to have a family

[00:01:46] Now that's gone

[00:01:51] And only memories linger on

[00:01:56] It all seems very wrong to me

[00:02:05] To our sorrow they were quite deaf

[00:02:10] And as soon as they could they left us to our tears

[00:02:16] We always tried to teach what was good

[00:02:21] Yes we gave our kids all we could through all the years

[00:02:43] So here we are at last

[00:02:49] The time has gone so fast and so have my dreams

[00:02:58] I simply don't know what it all means

[00:03:03] This pointless passage through the night

[00:03:06] This autumn time this walk upon the water

[00:03:19] I wonder how long

[00:03:23] It will be till this song

[00:03:29] Is sung by our own sons and daughters
