《Two Ragged Soldiers》歌词

[00:00:00] Two Ragged Soldiers - Scott Walker

[00:00:02]

[00:00:08] They spoke transparent phrases to looking glass women

[00:00:17] And they took the detours that scattered the way

[00:00:26] They departed from summer like two ragged soldiers

[00:00:35] Dragging their heels through their fantasies

[00:00:41]

[00:00:45] There were meals in the missions for two frozen statues

[00:00:55] And long draughty sermons devouring their knees

[00:01:04] Sometimes passions in winter turn to cold soundless moments

[00:01:13] That teared in the eyes of their fantasies

[00:01:20]

[00:01:25] There were nights on park benches stale bread for the pigeons

[00:01:34] Good mornings to faces who just turned away

[00:01:43] And on one road confusion the other desire

[00:01:52] So they took to the road of their fantasies

[00:02:01]

[00:02:05] One would speak of a lake where he used to go swimming

[00:02:17] The other had no memories left for his mind

[00:02:25] With their arms round each other the two ragged soldiers

[00:02:36] Laughed through a war that they couldn't see

[00:02:42]

[00:02:46] Laughed for a world filled with fantasy
