《Near or Far(Live at Cork Opera House)》歌词

[00:00:00] Near or Far (Live at Cork Opera House) - Mick Flannery

[00:00:00] Man of the moneyed mind

[00:00:03] A trophy wife on his arm to boast

[00:00:05] Their love was dashed on the diamond coast

[00:00:14] And born was a single heir

[00:00:16] To the ideal pair to the careless two

[00:00:19] Who choked the child on the silver spoon

[00:00:27] Now the couple take turns

[00:00:29] Trying to outdo each other

[00:00:33] The more riches the better

[00:00:36] The father or mother

[00:00:44] Love at sweet sixteen

[00:00:47] King and queen the wedding bells

[00:00:49] Could well have warned what time would tell

[00:00:57] And the cut above her eye

[00:01:00] She could not hide from the little boy

[00:01:03] Who knew it wise to not make noise

[00:01:11] Now he's gone more often

[00:01:14] And she found ways to forget

[00:01:17] And the little boy's hatred

[00:01:20] Is not showing yet

[00:01:28] The wife of a working man

[00:01:30] Pills in hand 'neath a teary sleeve

[00:01:33] Their love was pure but could not conceive

[00:01:36] Near of far from your mind

[00:01:42] And years and years go by

[00:01:44] The things they tried but Fate had wrote

[00:01:47] To not give life would kill them both

[00:01:50] All this happens all the time

[00:01:56] Now he goes to houses

[00:01:59] Where kissing is banned

[00:02:02] And she has a daughter

[00:02:05] But she's missing her man

[00:02:13] Near or far from your mind

[00:02:19] All this happens all the time

[00:02:25] Near or far from your mind

[00:02:31] All this happens all the time
