《Every Grain of Sand》歌词

[00:00:00] Every Grain Of Sand (每一粒微沙) - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)

[00:00:11] In the time of my confession

[00:00:15] In the hour of my deepest need

[00:00:20] When the pool of tears beneath my feet

[00:00:24] Flood every newborn seed

[00:00:28] There's a dyin' voice within me

[00:00:33] Reaching out somewhere

[00:00:38] Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair

[00:00:46] Don't have the inclination to look back on any mistake

[00:00:55] Like cain

[00:00:56] I now behold this chain of events that I must break

[00:01:04] In the fury of the moment I can see the master's hand

[00:01:12] In every leaf that trembles and in every grain of sand

[00:01:24] Oh the flowers of indulgence and the weeds of yesteryear

[00:01:33] Like criminals

[00:01:34] They have choked the breath of conscience and good cheer

[00:01:42] The sun beat down upon the steps of time to light the way

[00:01:50] To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay

[00:01:59] I gaze into the doorway of temptation's angry flame

[00:02:08] And every time I pass that way

[00:02:12] I always hear my name

[00:02:17] Then onward in my journey

[00:02:21] I come to understand

[00:02:26] That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand

[00:02:37] I have gone from rags to riches in the sorrow of the night

[00:02:46] In the violence of a summer's dream

[00:02:50] In the chill of a wintry light

[00:02:54] In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space

[00:03:03] In the broken mirror of innocence on each forgotten face

[00:03:12] I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea

[00:03:21] Sometimes I turn

[00:03:23] There's someone there other times it's only me

[00:03:30] I am hanging in the balance of a perfect finished plan

[00:03:38] Like every sparrow falling

[00:03:43] Like every grain of sand
