《River of Tears》歌词

[00:00:00] River Of Tears - Madeleine Peyroux (玛黛琳·蓓荷)

[00:00:01] Written by：Madeleine P

[00:00:08] Stop all this talk

[00:00:13] Turn off the telephone

[00:00:19] Open up another bottle

[00:00:23] Send those people home

[00:00:27] Let it get real quiet

[00:00:30] Turn that lamp way down low

[00:00:34] I'm gonna float down

[00:00:38] This river of tears

[00:00:49] I remember how we spoke

[00:00:53] On the days he was dry

[00:00:57] Even now that he's gone

[00:01:01] He can make a woman cry

[00:01:06] But he saw through me deaf

[00:01:10] Dumb and blind

[00:01:12] He knew his way down

[00:01:17] This river of tears

[00:01:27] Dashed hopes and best intentions

[00:01:32] People say

[00:01:36] He could sit and drink the way

[00:01:41] A monk could pray

[00:01:44] So grab that silver flask

[00:01:48] Pour yourself another glass and

[00:01:52] Watch me rage down

[00:01:55] This river of tears

[00:02:02] Turn out the stars now

[00:02:05] Darken every one

[00:02:11] Watch the clouds cover

[00:02:14] That big yellow moon

[00:02:19] Close the blinds mute the sun

[00:02:28] There's nowhere left to run

[00:03:10] Turn out the stars now

[00:03:14] Darken every one

[00:03:19] Watch the clouds cover

[00:03:22] That big yellow moon

[00:03:27] Close the blinds mute the sun

[00:03:36] There's nowhere left to run

[00:03:44] Picked up that old decanter

[00:03:48] That he used to drink from

[00:03:53] Turned on his stereo

[00:03:57] Just to hear it hum

[00:04:01] Daddy I'm gonna wrap myself

[00:04:03] In blankets and listen to you sing

[00:04:08] And I'm gonna float down

[00:04:12] This river of tears
