《Give Me the Reason》歌词

[00:00:00] Give Me the Reason - Luther Vandross (路瑟·范德魯斯)

[00:00:19] Moonlight through the chicken wire humming window pane

[00:00:28] Lukewarm water gasping down a rusty drain

[00:00:37] Big town's in need of mending street lights make tooth some seams

[00:00:45] Denim shadows shuffle in between the beams

[00:00:54] Different strokes for different folks so

[00:00:57] Your Mind manner and easy on the ethnic jokes

[00:01:02] It's a dumbbell curve you're trying to tally

[00:01:07] All the way down to shin bone alley

[00:01:20] Streets are metacarpal and flesh of asphalt calm

[00:01:29] Buildings rise like fingers from a concrete palm

[00:01:37] Yellow lit apartment trickle through the drapes

[00:01:46] Windows frame each history hidden even from the fire escapes

[00:01:54] Sullen winter sparrow lends wing to expanse of grey

[00:02:02] Six-thirty-two in the morning on Thanksgiving day and the bums

[00:02:11] They hit their corners the thunder bird rubs their bones and the crack

[00:02:19] Addicts stare at the snowflakes zigzagging down to greet Jones

[00:02:28] Different strokes for different folks so

[00:03:46] Seven-thirty-two on the same day your bare feet on the parquet

[00:03:54] And the light so papery white shining past the microwave

[00:04:02] Knuckles to eyeballs and elbows on the table

[00:04:11] Spend the day gazing from the window gable
