《I Am Old and I Cannot Sleep》歌词

[00:00:00] I Am Old and I Cannot Sleep - Edo De Waart (艾度·迪华特)/Eric Stern/Orchestra Of St. Luke's

[00:00:09] I am old and I cannot sleep forever

[00:00:17] Like the young nor hope

[00:00:24] That death will be a novelty

[00:00:31] But endless wakefulness when

[00:00:38] I put down my work and go to bed

[00:01:13] How much of what we did was good

[00:01:26] Everything seems to move beyond our remedy

[00:01:40] Come heal this wound

[00:01:50] At this hour nothing can be done

[00:02:21] Just before dawn the birds begin

[00:02:27] The warblers who prefer the dark

[00:02:34] The cage birds answering

[00:02:53] To work

[00:03:06] Outside this room the chill of grace

[00:03:16] Lies heavy on the morning grass
