《The Box》歌词

[00:00:00] The Box (盒子) - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)

[00:00:08] On the top shelf in the closet

[00:00:10] In the workshop where he spent his extra time

[00:00:17] Was a dust wooden box that I had never noticed till that time

[00:00:26] And we set on the table and carefully we opened up the top

[00:00:35] And stared into the memory

[00:00:39] Daddy kept inside the box

[00:00:43] There was a letter from mamma when she went out to Reno

[00:00:50] To help her sister out in 62

[00:00:56] And a flower from Hawaii when they went on vacation

[00:01:02] It was the first time that my Daddy ever flew

[00:01:08] And the pocket knife I gave to him on Fathers day

[00:01:14] Years ago I thought it had been lost

[00:01:20] We all thought his heart was made from solid rock

[00:01:26] But that was long before we found the box

[00:01:36] I guess we always knew it but I love you was hard for him to say

[00:01:44] Some men show it easy and some just never seem to find the way

[00:01:53] But that night I began to see the softer side of some I had lost

[00:02:02] I saw the love he kept inside the first time we opened up the box

[00:02:11] There was a picture that was taken when he and Mom were dating

[00:02:17] Standing by his 1944 and the faded

[00:02:24] Leather Bible he got when he was baptised

[00:02:29] I guess no one understood him like the Lord

[00:02:35] And the poem that he had written about his wife and children

[00:02:42] The tender words he spoke were quite a shock

[00:02:47] We all thought his heart was made of solid rock

[00:02:54] But that was long before we found the box

[00:02:59] We all thought his heart was made of solid rock

[00:03:06] But that was long before we found the box
