《East Timor》歌词

[00:00:00] East Timor - Morten Harket (摩腾·哈克特)

[00:00:20] Sandalwood trees are evergreen

[00:00:25] Cut them down

[00:00:26] Plant coffee beans

[00:00:30] Build no schools

[00:00:31] Construct no roads

[00:00:35] Mark them as fools

[00:00:37] Let ignorance rule

[00:00:39] Leave them stranded on their island

[00:00:45] Treat them to the tune of silence

[00:00:50] Red is the cross that covers out shame

[00:00:56] Every kingdom every land

[00:01:01] Has it's heart in the common man

[00:01:07] Silently the tide shifts the sand

[00:01:22] Bury my heart on east timor

[00:01:27] In coral sands

[00:01:29] On golden shores

[00:01:32] Buried are those

[00:01:34] Who lived their lives

[00:01:37] No place to hide for

[00:01:40] Father and child

[00:01:41] Leave them stranded on their island

[00:01:47] Treat them to the tune of silence

[00:01:52] We shake the hands that kill and forgive

[00:01:58] Every kingdom every land

[00:02:04] Has its heart in the common man

[00:02:09] Silently the tide shifts the sand

[00:02:34] Bury my heart on east timor

[00:02:39] On barren graves

[00:02:42] Where flowers won't grow

[00:02:44] Blooms our red cross lovingly

[00:02:49] This nightingale deed

[00:02:51] Now we can be free

[00:02:54] Stranded on their island

[00:03:00] This army of the silent

[00:03:04] We toast our own goodwill and forget

[00:03:14] Every kingdom every land

[00:03:18] Has its heart in the common man

[00:03:24] Silently the tide shifts the sand
