《The Hudson》歌词

[00:00:00] The Hudson - Dar Williams

[00:00:05] If we're lucky

[00:00:07] We feel our lives know

[00:00:09] When the next scene arrives

[00:00:11] So often we start in the middle

[00:00:14] And work our way out

[00:00:16] We go to some gray sky diner

[00:00:18] For eggs and toast

[00:00:20] New York Times or the New York Post

[00:00:23] Then we take a ride through

[00:00:24] The valley of the shadow of death

[00:00:28] But even for us New Yorkers

[00:00:35] There's a time in every day

[00:00:41] The river takes our breath away

[00:00:45] And the Hudson

[00:00:51] It holds the life

[00:00:55] We thought we did it on our own

[00:01:03] The river roads collect the tolls

[00:01:05] For the passage of our souls

[00:01:08] Through silence

[00:01:09] Over woods

[00:01:10] Through flowers and snow

[00:01:14] And past the George Washington Bridge

[00:01:17] Down from the trails of Breakneck Ridge

[00:01:20] The river's ancient path

[00:01:22] Is sacred and slow

[00:01:25] And as it swings through Harlem

[00:01:33] It's every shade of blue

[00:01:38] Into the city of the new brand new

[00:01:42] And the Hudson yeah

[00:01:48] It holds the life

[00:01:52] We thought we did it on our own

[00:01:59] I thought I had no sense of place or past

[00:02:06] Time was too slow

[00:02:09] But then too fast

[00:02:13] The river takes us home at last

[00:02:26] Where and when

[00:02:27] Does the memory take hold

[00:02:29] Mountain range in the Autumn cold

[00:02:31] And I thought West Point

[00:02:33] Was Camelot in the spring

[00:02:37] If you're lucky you'll find something

[00:02:39] That reflects you

[00:02:40] Helps you feel your life protects you

[00:02:43] Cradles you

[00:02:44] And connects you to everything

[00:02:48] This whole life I remember

[00:02:55] As they begged them to itself

[00:03:01] Never turn me into someone else

[00:03:05] And the Hudson yeah

[00:03:11] It holds the life

[00:03:15] We thought we did it on our own

[00:03:22] And the Hudson yeah

[00:03:28] Holds the life

[00:03:32] We thought we did it on our own
