《The Seer(Live At Hammersmith Odeon / 1989)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Seer (先知) (Live At Hammersmith Odeon / 1989) - Big Country (大乡野合唱团)

[00:01:15] Long ago I heard a tale

[00:01:17] I never will forget

[00:01:18] The time was in the telling

[00:01:20] On the bank the scene was set

[00:01:22] The sky was rolling blindly on

[00:01:24] The daylight had not gone

[00:01:26] She washed her hair among the stones

[00:01:28] And saw what was to come

[00:01:33] All this will pass

[00:01:37] There will be blood among the corn

[00:01:39] And heroes in the hills

[00:01:41] But there is more to come my boy

[00:01:43] Before you've had your fill

[00:01:45] Men will come and rape the sail

[00:01:46] As though it were their own

[00:01:48] And they will bathe their feet in oil

[00:01:50] As I have bathed my own

[00:01:55] All this will pass

[00:01:59] All things must come

[00:02:02] Just as I tell you here

[00:02:07] Stones will stand together

[00:02:08] As if searching for the stars

[00:02:11] And all come crashing down again

[00:02:12] Before they reach too far

[00:02:14] She turned to face the setting sun

[00:02:16] I turned to walk away

[00:02:18] But then she called my name again

[00:02:20] And beckoned me to stay

[00:02:24] All this will pass

[00:02:28] All things must come

[00:02:32] Just as I tell you here

[00:02:36] She told me of the famous sons

[00:02:38] Who write their names in peace

[00:02:40] Yet be cut down before the time

[00:02:42] Has come for our release

[00:02:47] Just as I tell you here

[00:02:51] Even now

[00:02:53] I wait for the coming day

[00:02:58] Even now

[00:03:01] She waits in the dawn

[00:03:05] For the tales she tells

[00:03:09] For the gifts that she will sell

[00:03:12] For the sight she knows

[00:03:16] For a vision that still grows

[00:03:20] With the dream in her eyes no one's seen

[00:04:04] I listened for so long that day

[00:04:06] That I can hardly tell

[00:04:07] If what she said was heaven sent

[00:04:09] Or brought to bear in hell

[00:04:11] That men of hope would stand alone

[00:04:13] And still be cast a lie

[00:04:15] Just as Romans cast them

[00:04:16] On the day they were to die

[00:04:21] All this will pass

[00:04:25] All things must come

[00:04:29] Just as I tell you here

[00:04:33] There is more of what she told

[00:04:35] Much better left alone

[00:04:37] For who are we to question her

[00:04:38] Who stands among the stones

[00:04:43] Just as I tell you here

[00:04:48] Even now

[00:04:50] I wait for the coming day

[00:04:55] Even now

[00:04:57] She waits in the dawn

[00:05:02] For the tales she tells

[00:05:05] For the gifts that she will sell

[00:05:09] For the sight she knows

[00:05:13] For a vision that still grows

[00:05:16] With the dream in her eyes no one's seen
