《Miss Bottom of the Hill》歌词

[00:00:00] Miss Bottom of the Hill - Iron & Wine (铁与酒乐团)

[00:00:37] So Miss Bottom of the Hill what do you want

[00:00:40] The sun is shining and your lovers always lose you in the dark

[00:00:44] And they were all chosen to remember how the sparrows hit the window

[00:00:49] That you closed to keep the cat out of the yard

[00:00:55] And like your body being dragged behind the moon

[00:00:58] You bring a memory of your mother like the money in your shoe

[00:01:02] And how a penetrating wisdom a bulletproof religion

[00:01:07] Always rip you like a wool off of the loom

[00:01:12] You floated farther than you ever meant to go

[00:01:16] And only now see you are naked when the wind began to blow

[00:01:20] There's no advice that you've been missing

[00:01:23] No trespass unforgiven

[00:01:25] Just a rebel with no pity for your boat

[00:01:30] I've come to know that I was stealin all your kisses on the evening

[00:01:35] The dogs were loose and lyin on the street

[00:01:40] You've learned to blend into the choir

[00:01:42] How to hold your hand in fire

[00:01:45] And what to say instead of what you mean

[00:01:48] With a trouble to say for just how hard it can be

[00:01:54] You met the women gluing jewels onto a crown

[00:01:58] You know men hidin in the city and their way of being found

[00:02:02] And you got nothing on your shoulders

[00:02:04] Still there's nothing too much colder

[00:02:07] Than a rubble of a house that's falling down

[00:02:13] Liek a baby cryin till it falls asleep

[00:02:16] The autumn's over by the time you count the color of the leaves

[00:02:20] You're paintin buzzards on the ceiling

[00:02:23] Fallin faithless at the healin

[00:02:25] With your friends around you wailin on their knees

[00:02:30] And I've come to know that I was stealin all your kisses on the evening

[00:02:35] The fog it swallowed everything but us

[00:02:41] You've learned to balance on the cable

[00:02:42] Drink us all under the table

[00:02:45] And who to try instead of who you trust

[00:02:48] With a hand on your heart that threw you under the bus

[00:02:55] So Miss Bottom of the Hill what do you want

[00:02:58] The sun is shinin and you cleaned your pretty pistol of a heart

[00:03:02] But when you talk about tomorrow

[00:03:04] When to beg and when to borrow

[00:03:07] Try to hit the ground before you hear the shot

[00:03:13] And like a fish too deep and driftin in the sea

[00:03:16] You've grown accustomed to the blindness lookin up and anxiously

[00:03:20] But there's a stone inside your pocket while you're plowin through the market

[00:03:25] But you know even the time it takes ain't free

[00:03:30] I've come to know that I was stealin all your kisses on the evening

[00:03:35] The stars were barely hangin in the sky

[00:03:40] You've learned to eat when you're not hungry

[00:03:42] How to laugh when nothin's funny

[00:03:45] And what to get instead of getting by

[00:03:48] But oh how it changes with the passing of time

[00:03:54] You heard so many voices hidden in the wind

[00:03:58] See all the children of the world and how its fingers reach for them

[00:04:02] Two branches tired of their bending

[00:04:05] I don't see our story ending

[00:04:07] Quite as clean as it was easy to begin

[00:04:13] Like a hole that let the fox under the fence

[00:04:16] You've got no solace and no sanctuary you can recommend

[00:04:20] Beggin for mercy at the bedside

[00:04:22] We got frozen in the headlights

[00:04:25] But our kind of mercy never made much sense

[00:04:31] I've come to know that I was stealin all your kisses on the evening

[00:04:35] But both were disappearin in the waves

[00:04:40] You've learned to lead the one you follow

[00:04:42] How to spit out what you swallow

[00:04:45] And when to hand instead of give away

[00:04:48] That secret of ours is one I'll take to the grave

[00:04:57] So Miss Bottom of the Hill what do you want

[00:05:00] The sun is shinin and I think you want me more often than not

[00:05:04] But like your father in the garden

[00:05:06] I won't finish what I started

[00:05:09] Till you bill me for the flowers I forgot

[00:05:14] But like a curse too old for anyone to care

[00:05:18] You said to meet you on the mountain cause you never make it there

[00:05:22] In sochi down along the highway

[00:05:24] Proudly promisin that one day

[00:05:27] I'd miss the way we tumbled down the stairs

[00:05:32] And I've come to know that I was stealin all your kisses on the evening

[00:05:37] The car was gently glidin off the road

[00:05:43] You've learned to rise above your body

[00:05:44] How to never say you're sorry

[00:05:47] And where to go instead of going home

[00:05:50] With a light by the bed

[00:05:51] And all the clothes you've outgrown
