《A Church Is Burning》歌词

[00:00:00] A Church Is Burning (Live) - Simon & Garfunkel

[00:00:05] A church is burning

[00:00:11] The flames rise higher

[00:00:15] Like hands that are praying

[00:00:18] They grow in the sky

[00:00:22] Like hands that are praying

[00:00:24] The fire ascends

[00:00:26] You can burn down my churches

[00:00:29] But I shall be free

[00:00:34] Three hooded men through the back roads did creep

[00:00:38] Torches in their hands

[00:00:40] While the village lies asleep

[00:00:42] Down to the church where just hours before

[00:00:47] Voices were singing and

[00:00:49] Hands were meeting and

[00:00:51] Saying I won't be a slave anymore

[00:00:56] A church is burning

[00:01:02] The flames rise higher

[00:01:06] Like hands that are praying

[00:01:10] They glow in the sky

[00:01:13] Like hands that are praying

[00:01:15] The fire ascends

[00:01:17] You can burn down my churches

[00:01:20] But I shall be free

[00:01:26] Three hooded men their hands lit the spark

[00:01:29] And they faded in the night

[00:01:31] They vanished in the dark

[00:01:33] And in the cold light of morning

[00:01:35] There was nothing that remained

[00:01:37] But the ashes of a bible and a can of kerosene

[00:01:42] And a church is burning

[00:01:49] The flames rise higher

[00:01:53] Like hands that are praying

[00:01:57] They glow in the sky

[00:02:00] Like hands that are prayin'

[00:02:02] The fire ascends

[00:02:04] You can burn down my churches

[00:02:07] But I shall be free

[00:02:12] A church is more than just timber and stone

[00:02:16] And freedom is a dark road

[00:02:18] When you're walking it alone

[00:02:20] But the future is now

[00:02:22] And it's time to take a stand

[00:02:24] So the lost bells of freedom

[00:02:27] Can ring out in my land

[00:02:30] A church is burning

[00:02:36] The flames rise higher

[00:02:41] Like hands that are praying

[00:02:44] They glow in the sky

[00:02:47] Like hands that are praying

[00:02:49] The fire ascends

[00:02:51] You can burn down my churches

[00:02:55] But I shall be free
