《Ballad Of An Elder Woman(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Ballad Of An Elder Woman (Album Version) - John Martyn

[00:00:19] Now woman don't you feel sad

[00:00:22] When you see your life go round

[00:00:26] And you realise you've been drinking

[00:00:28] All of your years like wine

[00:00:34] You're gambling with time and you

[00:00:37] Know you just can't win

[00:00:41] But still you feel that somehow

[00:00:42] You've just got to keep on trying

[00:00:48] And woman it's your heart I hear crying

[00:00:59] Now the young man by your side is your husband

[00:01:03] Or so you say

[00:01:06] In reality he's a link with a past you just can't replace

[00:01:14] You tell the world you're happy

[00:01:16] When you're lying in his arms

[00:01:20] Oh but his youth has made you hate to see his face

[00:01:28] And woman it's your heart I see crying

[00:01:53] Now you're standing like some tree oh

[00:01:56] And the blossom has blown away

[00:02:00] And the last leaf has gone crumbling

[00:02:02] Tumbling towards the ground

[00:02:07] You have nothing to teach me

[00:02:10] Just have nothing at all to say

[00:02:14] Except to keep on telling me about all the happiness

[00:02:17] That you do think you have found

[00:02:21] And woman it's your heart I see crying
