《Roses On The 4th Of July(LP Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] Roses On The 4th Of July - Nanci Griffith

[00:00:15] He still sends her roses on the 4th of July

[00:00:18] They're always white roses

[00:00:20] And she never asks why

[00:00:25] She still doesn't know

[00:00:26] Where he goes Thursday nights

[00:00:29] But his wedding band rests

[00:00:35] On the bedside that night

[00:00:43] He was a soldier in the Vietnam war

[00:00:46] He lost half his right leg whilst

[00:00:48] Daydreaming of her

[00:00:53] She lit a candle each holy hour

[00:00:56] He was gone

[00:00:57] "You Were On My Mind"

[00:01:03] Was their favorite song

[00:01:12] Love is a mystery

[00:01:13] From birth 'till we die

[00:01:15] It's cross words of a morning

[00:01:17] By evening entwined

[00:01:22] It's all that we dream of

[00:01:23] Sometimes it's not right

[00:01:25] Love is white roses and you never ask why

[00:01:40] He's the hands of a draftsman

[00:01:42] He's built a good life

[00:01:43] She works for a season during IRS time

[00:01:49] Two children they've had though

[00:01:51] Their boy has now died

[00:01:53] When they wake of each morning

[00:01:59] He's still on their minds

[00:02:08] Their friends would all tell you

[00:02:09] They're like day and night

[00:02:11] Their daughter's an actress

[00:02:13] She is strong and she's bright

[00:02:18] He meets with his pals from

[00:02:19] The war Thursday nights

[00:02:22] She still treasures those roses

[00:02:28] Every 4th of July

[00:02:36] Love is a mystery from birth till we die

[00:02:40] It's cross words of a morning

[00:02:42] By evening entwined

[00:02:46] It's all that we dream of

[00:02:48] Sometimes it's not right

[00:02:50] Love is white roses

[00:02:56] And you never ask why

[00:03:08] Love is white roses every 4th of July
