《To Bobby》歌词

[00:00:03] Joan Baez - To Bobby

[00:00:05] I'll put flowers at your feet and I will sing to you so sweet

[00:00:14] And hope my words will carry home to your heart

[00:00:24] You left us marching on the road and said how heavy was the load

[00:00:33] The years were young the struggle barely had its start

[00:00:42] Do you hear the voices in the night Bobby

[00:00:47] They're crying for you

[00:00:51] See the children in the morning light Bobby

[00:00:56] They're dying

[00:01:00] No one could say it like you said it we'd only try and just forget it

[00:01:10] You stood alone upon the mountain till it was sinking

[00:01:19] And in a frenzy we tried to reach you

[00:01:24] With looks and letters we would beseech you

[00:01:28] Never knowing what where or how you were thinking

[00:01:37] Do you hear the voices in the night Bobby

[00:01:42] They're crying for you

[00:01:46] See the children in the morning light Bobby

[00:01:51] They're dying

[00:01:56] Perhaps the pictures in the Times could no longer be put in rhymes

[00:02:05] When all the eyes of starving children are wide open

[00:02:14] You cast aside the cursed crown and put your magic into a sound

[00:02:23] That made me think your heart was aching or even broken

[00:02:32] But if God hears my complaint He will forgive you

[00:02:41] And so will I with all respect I'll just relive you

[00:02:50] And likewise you must understand these things we give you

[00:02:59] Like these flowers at your door and scribbled notes about the war

[00:03:09] We're only saying the time is short and there is work to do

[00:03:18] And we're still marching in the streets with little victories and big defeats

[00:03:26] But there is joy and there is hope and there's a place for you

[00:03:36] And you have heard the voices in the night Bobby

[00:03:41] They're crying for you

[00:03:45] See the children in the morning light Bobby

[00:03:51] They're dying
