《When the Night Comes Falling from the Sky (Alternate Take)》歌词

[00:00:14] Look out across the fields, see me returning,

[00:00:21] Smoke is in your eye, you draw a smile.

[00:00:27] From the fireplace where my letters to you are burning,

[00:00:34] You've had time to think about it for a while.

[00:00:41] Well, I've walked two hundred miles, now look me over,

[00:00:48] It's the end of the chase and the moon is high.

[00:00:54] It won't matter who loves who,

[00:00:57] You'll love me or I'll love you

[00:01:00] When the night comes falling from the sky.

[00:01:07] I can see through your walls and I know you're hurting,

[00:01:15] Sorrow covers you up like a cape.

[00:01:21] Only yesterday I know that you've been flirting

[00:01:27] With disaster that you managed to escape.

[00:01:34] I can't provide for you no easy answers,

[00:01:41] Who are you that I should have to lie?

[00:01:47] You'll know all about it, love,

[00:01:50] It'll fit you like a glove

[00:01:54] When the night comes falling from the sky.

[00:02:07] I can hear your trembling heart beat like a river,

[00:02:14] You must have been protecting someone last time I called.

[00:02:20] I've never asked you for nothing you couldn't deliver,

[00:02:23] I've never asked you to set yourself up for a fall.

[00:02:32] I saw thousands who could have overcome the darkness,

[00:02:39] For the love of a lousy buck, I've watched them die.

[00:02:46] Stick around, baby, we're not through,

[00:02:49] Don't look for me, I'll see you

[00:02:52] When the night comes falling from the sky.

[00:03:31] In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection,

[00:03:38] It was on the northern border of Texas where I crossed the line.

[00:03:44] I don't want to be a fool starving for affection,

[00:03:50] I don't want to drown in someone else's wine.

[00:03:57] For all eternity I think I will remember

[00:04:05] That icy wind that's howling in your eye.

[00:04:10] You will seek me and you'll find me In the wasteland of your mind

[00:04:16] When the night comes falling from the sky.

[00:04:29] Well, I sent you my feelings in a letter

[00:04:35] But you were gambling for support.

[00:04:42] This time tomorrow I'll know you better

[00:04:50] When my memory is not so short.

[00:04:55] This time I'm asking for freedom,

[00:05:01] Freedom from a world which you deny.

[00:05:07] And you'll give it to me now,

[00:05:11] I'll take it anyhow

[00:05:13] When the night comes falling from the sky.
