《Olana(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Olana (LP版) - MARC COHN

[00:00:22] They say my final masterpiece

[00:00:27] Was this house upon the hill

[00:00:31] High above the great and mighty river

[00:00:40] My hand could not hold the brushes

[00:00:45] Yes I guess I lost my will

[00:00:49] And you can't keep painting paradise forever

[00:00:57] Oh forever

[00:01:07] From the Andes to Niagara

[00:01:12] To where we stand today

[00:01:16] I drew the great creations of my master

[00:01:24] 'Til the oil and the canvas

[00:01:30] Lord I threw them all away

[00:01:34] And traded them for stone and brick and plaster

[00:01:41] I traded them all for you

[00:01:43] (Winter wind blows and the river lies frozen at my feet)

[00:01:50] I traded them all for you

[00:01:52] (Springtime come and the river wanna run above the street)

[00:02:05] She came to me one night

[00:02:09] While I was tossing in my dreams

[00:02:14] She said she'd give my family protection

[00:02:23] I recall the night I died

[00:02:26] Beneath her arches and her beams

[00:02:32] I thanked her for the shelter and direction

[00:02:39] I was lost until Olana

[00:02:43] (Sun beat down on a summertime town he left me there)

[00:02:48] I was lost until Olana

[00:02:51] (Watching these hills turning gold for one more year)

[00:02:59] Oh I've been from Jerusalem to Rome

[00:03:08] Now I'm floating through these rooms tonight alone

[00:03:17] And looking back on everything

[00:03:22] All I ever wanted was a home

[00:03:42] I was lost until Olana

[00:03:48] How sweet the sound

[00:03:50] How sweet the sound sweet the sound

[00:03:58] They say my final masterpiece

[00:04:02] Was this house upon the hill
