《The Loving Kind》歌词

[00:00:00] The Loving Kind - Nanci Griffith

[00:00:08] They were the loving kind

[00:00:12] She was black and he was white

[00:00:16] In Virginia nineteen fifty eight

[00:00:19] They found love amongst the hate

[00:00:24] Well the law said they could not wed

[00:00:27] They married anyway

[00:00:32] The sheriff put them both in jail

[00:00:35] Separated till they made their bail

[00:00:39] They changed the heart of a nation

[00:00:43] With their wedding vows

[00:00:47] From the highest court in the land

[00:00:51] Their union would lawfully stand

[00:00:54] Simply Mildred and Richard

[00:00:58] That's how they'll be remembered

[00:01:02] They proved that love is truly blind

[00:01:07] They were the loving kind

[00:01:18] The Loving's lived a quiet life

[00:01:22] In their Virginia home

[00:01:25] And while the case worked its way through the courts

[00:01:29] They brought three children to this world

[00:01:33] Richard died in seventy five

[00:01:37] Mildred kept their love alive

[00:01:41] 'Till the spring of two thousand eight

[00:01:45] Fifty years beyond the hate

[00:01:48] They changed the heart of a nation

[00:01:53] With their wedding vows

[00:01:56] From the highest court in the land

[00:02:00] Their union would lawfully stand

[00:02:04] Simply Mildred and Richard

[00:02:07] That's how they'll be remembered

[00:02:11] They proved that love is truly blind

[00:02:16] They were the loving kind

[00:02:19] They proved that love is truly blind

[00:02:24] They were the loving kind
