《You Can’t Fail Me Now(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] You Can't Fail Me Now - Loudon Wainwright III

[00:00:08] I know that fan is moving air

[00:00:12] I can see it in your hair

[00:00:16] But I can't bear to breathe it in somehow

[00:00:22] I'll rise and fall with you

[00:00:26] 'Cause you can't fail me now

[00:00:30] I'll rise and fall with you

[00:00:34] 'Cause you can't fail me now

[00:00:40] Salt is sweet upon my mouth

[00:00:44] Dark throws sparks against my house

[00:00:48] The stain of love's a smudge upon my brow

[00:00:56] But you see through me

[00:00:58] And you can't fail me now

[00:01:05] You see right through me

[00:01:07] And you can't fail me now

[00:01:13] I've bit off more than I can chew

[00:01:17] It's something that I tend to do

[00:01:20] When fewer words are what we need and how

[00:01:29] You bite my tongue

[00:01:31] And you can't fail me now

[00:01:37] I rant and rail

[00:01:39] But you can't fail me now

[00:02:20] I lost the thread among the vines

[00:02:24] And hung myself in storylines

[00:02:29] That tell the tales I never would allow

[00:02:36] God knows the name of every bird

[00:02:40] That fills my mind like angry words

[00:02:45] But you know all my secret heart avows

[00:02:53] We're taught to love the worst of us

[00:02:58] And mercy more than life but trust me

[00:03:01] Mercy's just a warning shot across the bow

[00:03:10] I live for yours

[00:03:12] And you can't fail me now

[00:03:17] I live for your mercy

[00:03:25] You can't fail me now

[00:03:30] You can't fail me now
